Partnership
Squeaky Wheel has maintained ongoing collaborations with the University at Buffalo, particularly through programs that connect media education with community outreach. For example, joint initiatives have included technology and arts programs designed to address gaps in access to digital tools, especially among underrepresented youth. These collaborations have involved faculty and students from media study programs working alongside Squeaky Wheel staff to provide mentorship, workshops, and hands-on production experience.[7]
