Welcome to JOUR 114!
Congratulations! You are all now part of our student media staff. I look forward to hearing your ideas and to begin overseeing your awesome creativity applied to our student media.
By enrolling in this course, you will be a part of an award-winning student media staff. You will be given a press pass with your photo on it and will have doors opened for you that offer incredible opportunities.
I run the lab in an experimental way where no idea is too crazy. Our goal is to try new things and see what works. We are on campus to serve the student population by informing and entertaining them with interested college content. Never fear to make your ideas heard. All ideas are welcome.
You will need to have Twitter and Instragram accounts, and you will also need to download the free app Slack. I will go over all of this with you on Tuesday.
Here are some of the things the press have said about us. Please give these articles a read!
