WEEK 1

Hello editors!

Welcome to JOUR115, the student media practicum for editors, managers, and senior content creators and producers.

This semester will be 100 percent project based with all of you moving on to become the senior producing staff of InTheSAC. I am hoping we can brainstorm some fantastic ideas to maybe try to attempt some short mini-docs. 

We will hit the ground running in week 3. BUT...

This is the first time that our two journalism conferences fall within one week of each other. If you become an editor, or are already an editor, you will have the opportunity to attend one of these amazing conferences -  in NY, LA, SF, Sacramento, and many other places that are yet to be announced.

With that said, THE NEWSROOM WILL BE CLOSED ON THE NEXT TWO THURSDAYS AND THERE WILL BE NO CLASSES. I do not cancel classes but this is something I can't help because both conferences begin on Thursday morning. I will give you reading for those days. If you want to come and talk to me about the course, please come in on Tuesday, or message me to meet Wednesday. Otherwise, we will begin on Thursday, March 14.

NEWSROOM CLOSED AND CLASSES CANCELLED:
THURSDAY, FEB. 28 AND THURSDAY, MARCH 7

Look forward to seeing all of you again!

Here is the syllabus:
