St. Bonaventure University

 

Jandoli School of Communication


Our story is steeped in success. For more than 70 years, the Jandoli School of Communication has distinguished itself as a world-class program. 

Jandoli School alumni include instantly recognizable and highly regarded communications professionals, such as Dan Barry of the New York Times, ESPN's Adrian "Woj" Wojnarowski, and three-time New York Sportswriter of the Year Mike Vaccaro of the New York Post.
  
The school's home in the Murphy Professional Building is long overdue for a makeover to ensure that this enviable record of success continues.

    Franciscan Mission and Ministries

    Saint Bonaventure, our patron, taught that “there is no knowledge without love.” In this spirit, we educate the whole of our students, their hearts as well as their minds.

    Alumni recount time and again how they knew St. Bonaventure was the school for them the moment they first set foot on campus as prospective students. They sense something different about this place, a recognition that we are an academic and spiritual community that affirms the dignity of every individual and forges bonds of mutual acceptance and understanding.

    We offer a transformative experience, inspiring students to embrace a lifetime commitment to service and citizenship. As we say, once a Bonnie, always a Bonnie.

    Enjoy the WSBU 88.3 FM "The Buzz" interview with Fr. Stephen Mimnaugh, O.F.M., interim university chaplain, and Alice Miller Nation, director of the Franciscan Center for Social Concern, who talk about service programs and mission integration.

    Doubly grateful

    “I was fortunate to work for Ford Motor Company as a product designer during the summer. I'm so grateful to Bona's User Interface Design elective, where I learned that design is a part of computer science and something I can pursue long term.”
