Description:

Journalism is an exciting, demanding career. This course will examine journalism as an art, a craft and an occupation by looking at the evolution of American journalism, as well as the state of contemporary practices in print, broadcast and online. A more specialized and advanced course than COM 317, COM 450 will afford students the opportunity to practice journalistic reporting and writing, will give them the chance to consider journalism ethics and history, and also will provide practical writing experience. This course will help prepare students for writing for a wide range of publications and audiences. Students will learn intermediate and advanced techniques of media writing, especially for print. They will continue to hone editing and revision skills learned in COM317 and other courses.
