The introductory post

Hello and welcome to The JOUR 4200 Special, a blog looking at the life of a journalism student in a changing journalistic world.

Granted, it is targeted mainly for a specific class of students that occupy Johnston Hall room 300 on Mondays and Wednesdays with Dr. Byers teaching us his knowledge. But with that said, I hope to explore all the trends going on in the world of journalism as well as things we are embarking on in this class.

Readers are getting their news different ways and it is up to the next batch of reporters to learn the tricks of the trade, master multimedia elements, and still hit those deadlines (trust me, as I also write for The Marquette Tribune - they don't change).

So that's the first of what promises to be many updates to this blog. Out for now, cheers.
