Welcome back
The beginning of the semester started with a bang. It is always overwhelming to look at a semester’s work from the beginning. Receiving syllabuses in each class and discussing tests, papers and work can be challenging to keep into perspective. However, I am trying to keep my schedule in perspective.
First of all, my Tuesdays and Thursdays will be manageable. I have one class (History of American Journalism and the starting time is 12:30. History of American Journalism is a required class for Journalism majors and will cover the history and trends of modern Journalism.
However, my MWF will be harder. I start at 8 a.m. I have never before had a class this early. On my walk to class, the street was empty. And cold. Today I had my Convergence Reporting class. This will probably take the most time. We rotate among the three news stations (KBIA, KOMU and The Missourian). My first shift will be at KOMU next week. Every other week we will work on group projects. I am looking forward to seeing the inner workings of all the newsrooms.
