STUDENT WORK

Students in our college have unique opportunities to develop a wide range of skills, from strategic thinking to artistic development. Their coursework often serves as an initial introduction, which they then extend beyond the classroom. Through the O'Brien fellowship, Milwaukee Neighborhood News Service, Student Media, the MIC and other initiatives, students contribute to a cause, learn while doing, and find their callings. Here, we are proud to showcase their work inside the classroom and beyond.

This course provided a comprehensive exploration of journalism, covering both mainstream and alternative media outlets. Students examined the core principles, organizational structures, ethical standards, and broader societal role of journalism in the world today.
