We would like to thank everyone who participated in the nomination process for your Missouri School of Journalism Senior Superlatives. Now it’s time to choose the winners!
We tallied up all of your responses (sans trolls) and we have narrowed down your nominations to four names per category. Continue reading
Last year, we had some great responses for our senior superlatives. And this year, Class of 2012, it’s your turn!
We have ten categories on this year’s survey, including who is most likely to win a Pulitzer Prize and the ever-popular who is most likely to be the next Brian Brooks.
The University of Missouri School of Journalism has 1,138 students currently in their emphasis areas. Pre-journalism students are not included in the graph because they are not in their emphasis areas yet.
Starting today, we will be publishing a series of blog posts about the stereotypes that many people have about different sequences in the Missouri School of Journalism. At least one person from each sequence will be responding to these stereotypes. If you are lucky enough to be ignorant of the generalizations, here are the different stereotypes by sequence, simplified:
Word on the street is that some non-StratComm students in the Missouri School of Journalism are unhappy about the upcoming Strategic Communication Career Fair, which is “restricted to Strategic Communication students already admitted into their sequence.” I had never considered that other students would want to attend, but even so, I stand behind the decision to keep them off the guest list.
While it’s tempting to make my case by proving that StratComm > all other sequences, the reason I support this restriction comes down to one thing: experience.
The Strategic Communication Career Fair is coming up, and everyone in the Missouri School of Journalism is super excited about it. Everyone in StratComm, that is, since they are the only ones allowed to attend the Career Fair.
As you can see on its registration page, “The Strategic Communication Career Fair is restricted to Strategic Communication students already admitted into their sequence. No other majors or sequences will be permitted to attend.”
Anyone in Print & Digital, Broadcast or Convergence is out of luck, as we learned from one extremely disappointed tipster.
So, why are only Strategic Communication students allowed to attend?
