The Lawrence Times news team is happy to announce a familiar face as our new staff reporter: Cuyler Dunn.
In his new full-time role with The Lawrence Times, Dunn will cover education, Douglas County government, local development and more.
“Lawrence is the only home I’ve ever known, and I’m thrilled to join the only locally owned news source serving this city,” Dunn said. “I can’t wait to continue writing about the schools, organizations, businesses and, most importantly, people that make this city special.”
Though he’s fresh out of college with his bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Kansas, Dunn has already covered Lawrence and Kansas for several years. During this first full-time week on the job, he published his 200th article with the Times.

Shortly after making the Times in 2022 for his selection as the Kansas Scholastic Press Association’s Student Journalist of the Year, Dunn started reporting with this publication, where he has covered a vast range of topics in education, local government and more.
He also brings experience from outside of Lawrence and this publication.
Dunn covered city government and high school sports for the Eudora Times and interned as a reporter for Kansas City PBS. He has also done freelance reporting for the Kansas Reflector. His most recent stop was as a summer intern on the politics team at the Kansas City Star.
In college, he was a White House Correspondents Scholar and participated in the Center for Strategic and International Studies journalism bootcamp. Dunn also worked at the Kansas Scholastic Press Association and regularly presents at student journalism conferences.
His reporting has won awards from the Kansas Press Association, Society of Professional Journalists and National Scholastic Press Association.
Dunn rounds out the news team, joining news editor/reporter Wulfe Wulfemeyer and reporter/founder Mackenzie Clark.
