The hall was established in 1972 to honor individuals from wire services, radio, television, and weekly and daily newspapers who have made significant contributions in their professions in the state of Washington. Previous inductees to the Hall of Fame include Edward R. Murrow, William Cowles III and Clarance Blethen, Frank's grandfather.

All students are welcome to attend the career fair.
