This continuation of a two-course sequence begun in the fall semester will emphasize further refinement and use of the skills introduced in 76-372. Students will be encouraged to and assisted in finding outlets to publish their assignments. Weekly sessions will focus on the history and evolution of journalism in the 20th century as a way of understanding contemporary practices and trends. In addition, classes will include presentations of student projects; discussion of practical problems in newsgathering; analysis of published stories; and visits by professional journalists. While it is recommended that students with little to no journalism experience take 76-372 before enrolling in this course, students with previous or current journalism experience are encouraged to contact the instructor for permission to enroll. This course may be taken more than once for credit.
