This week we’ll be discussing stories from the perspective of what your fellow students want to hear.  Continue to poll your friends and enemies and come to our group story-listing session with plenty of ideas.

Students new to journalism:  You’ll be learning the ropes of writing news stories, leads, interviewing etc.  Students who have been in journalism before:  you will be honing your news-writing skills this semester.
