Yesterday, Meet the Press Executive Producer Betsy Fischer visited John Carroll University, the alma mater of the late host of Meet the Press Tim Russert.
John Carroll, named its communications school after Russert in May.
Fischer tweeted about her stay:

John Carroll created a Russert Fellowship for a post-grad to spend a year working @ MTP. Met & Interviewed the 3 very impressive finalists.

Russert tragically passed away last June after suffering a heart attack at NBC News’ Washington studios. He was 58-years-old.
The Buffalo native graduated from John Carroll in 1972 with a degree in political science. The small Jesuit university’s campus is located just outside of Cleveland.
And here is the photo you have all been waiting for:
