A Brief Note On Journalism And Visual Communications

After having been in my first college year for a couple of months, I still had no idea what I was leaning towards for a major. Within these first couple of months I had learned that Biomedical Studies was not something that I was sure of, along with many other careers and majors that I learned about in the Compass class that were not for me. Tired of not knowing what I wanted to do, I sat myself down and did some researched. I came upon

Taylor Sampson interviewed Jay Welsh, current Florida Virtual School instructor in Journalism and seasoned broadcast journalist to talk to him about the career of journalism. When asked what would all aspiring journalists study and do before entering the profession he states “Number one is a great writing education. Very little is done without a script, and you are responsible for writing that script.” He also says to follow your passion “There is all types of different fields (for journalism careers). Mine was sports. For others it might be politics, fashion, wild life.” He even says every aspect of life has a journalist path. “The last thing would have to be comfortable speaking. You’re going to be in front of people. It can be a bit egotistical if you like being the center of attention; because that’s what you are.”

Selecting a college major is an important decision, and it is not one that should be made lightly. It is important to remember, however, that declaring a major is not an irreversible decision. It is not uncommon for college students to change majors one or more times after they enroll in college. Sometimes, you need time, research, and reflection before you can choose a college major. Setting college goals can help you, as can understanding different college majors and how they can move you closer to your goals. Do your research, keep an open mind, and be honest with yourself, and you can choose a college major that

When you focus on a career major, you have to have a reasonable picture of what you are getting into. You have to get correct data and assess it. Numerous components go into picking a school or college major including parental or peer influence,

As a college student you are told to pick a major that you have interest in. As a little girl, I have always wanted to have a meaningful career. Don’t get me wrong; there are so many careers that have done incredible things for people and the world, but I wanted to find something I am passionate about. After earning my Certified Nursing Assistant, I am going to be a nursing

There are many majors out there and tons to choose from. Many students in high school by now have an idea on what they’re interested on becoming. So far, I have no clue on what I want to study, but I do have a picture of it. Choosing a career is one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make in your life. Because of that you have to choose very carefully and make sure whatever you choose will suite you. Whether it’s from engineering or going into the medical field, they all take time. Here I have chosen 5 careers that I myself am very interested on studying after high school.

This article mainly targets current college students who are still undecided or students who are already in a major, and it tries to convince those students to make sure they chose the “correct” career path.

If I did not know anything about journalism, I would have to conclude from the film Shattered Glass that the purpose of journalism is to report the truth no matter what even if the story seems boring to you. Also as a fact checker/editor

With a passion for learning and discovery journalism is the career best suited for me. In order to learn you have to be willing to go in search of information and go through the process of analysing this information, hence, the discovery of new things not known to the public or myself. This is to say that if there is an unrest in an area and residents are leaving, while law enforcement

I also write for The Brandeis Hoot in the arts and opinions sections. I think my time in the newspaper has allowed me to develop, already, research skills and understand what journalism is all about. It is to be at a place and time on behalf of other people, who cannot be there, in order to obtain accurate information and inform the public. Working for the newspaper has also allowed me to get out of my comfort zone, try new things, and work under

According to St. Louis University, it’s not unusual for a freshman to not know what to major in. While some may believe that kids should know their majors before they get to school, maybe this isn’t the best tactic to take. Instead, it’s reasonable to think that a person’s education will influence his/ her decisions about what to major in.

To be successful in my career I am going to attend Fresno State University. I have made a lot of progress in pursuing that. I have gotten a C or above in every class I have taken so far, passed 2 years of Spanish and also have done the required types of electives. Once I am in college, I will then figure out what exactly I will major in, and what career I want. I am having a hard time choosing both of those. It seems as if most people I know have a good idea on what they will major in and what career paths they are going for. Personally though, I have no idea. But the very choice to choose that for myself and have it be a large possibility is a part of “The American

Over the years I have thought of many different careers and majors that I believed I should do. Most of the time they were based on what I saw other people, who I looked up to doing. My cousin Courtney was a lifeguard, so I wanted to be a lifeguard, my mom was a nurse, so I wanted to work in the medical field. Then I would be watching sporting events with my dad, and I wanted to be a sports journalist/reporter. It wasn’t until high school that I really started to look at what I liked to do and what I was good at.

Senior year in high school is the time we finally approach the first look at college applications. For many, it may be simple, for others it may not. Some of us have had our lives planned out earlier than others. others may see it as a scary lifelong decision to be made when choosing a major. One way students make their decision by planning ahead and seeing the actual potential available within a major.

I’ve just entered my senior year of high school. I know that this is a very important year. I have a lot of decisions to make and not much time to make them. These decisions will either make or break my life, and I want to make sure that I make them to the best of my ability because there is no turning back. I need to make sure I definitely want to attend college. The decision is totally up to me. There are many positives and negatives of attending college. Go over them, and then decide. I know myself better then anyone else, and I won’t let anyone else tell me what to do. I will make sure if I am going to attend college that I have something in mind that I will want to do, to succeed in. Choosing a major can be a
