Newspaper Reporting class was a very influential course for me to take this fall. It really allowed me to gain experience in the field of journalism and allowed me to do things that I have never done before like attend borough meetings, court hearings and school board meetings.
Though covering these events was very enjoyable and fulfilling, my favorite story to write was my first feature on an athlete on campus. For this story, I wrote it on Joshua Hershey, a freshman soccer player at Cal U. I really enjoyed writing this piece because I got to understand what a student athlete goes through and how difficult and time consuming it can be.
The most difficult story to write was definitely the borough meeting story. Not a lot went on during this meeting and it was challenging to write about the most interesting topics discussed during the meeting. The topics were not as interesting as the other things we covered, but it was possible
My goals in life do include being a reporter. The thing I am most passionate about is sports and being a sports reporter is my dream. I really enjoy working with people and if this were to happen in regards to sports, I would love it.
The suggestions I would give to future students would be to just enjoy the class. Enjoy getting the experience that you would need in the working world. I have really enjoyed getting experience and would encourage any journalism major to take this class.
