Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Contrary to expectations, the journalism school mentioned in the title of this episode is NOT the creation of our gal Murphy Brown (Candice Bergen). Instead, she has given permission for her name to be used for a school created by her journalistic mentor, retired high school teacher Ken Hamilton (William Schallert). At first flattered by the honor, Murphy changes her mind when the "Murphy Brown School of Broadcasting" morphs into the office joke, and she herself is nominated for (to quote TV Guide) "Most Likely to Be Embarrassed."
