Pro Tips!

Get involved in your college newsroom.

Don’t worry about not having “the
experience” yet – you’re in the same
spot our best young journalists were
in when they started college. Second,
focus on serving the community by
reporting on those issues that make
a difference. Finally, open your mind
to critical thinking – thinking that pokes at what you know and helps
you expand your understanding, both of journalism and the world
around you. Do that, and you’ll be on your way to being not only
an outstanding journalist but also an outstanding human being.
