Professional Status Recognised.
The school, one of the first in
the nation to recognize the ne
cessity for academic training in the
profession, hopes to show the stu
dent its grasp of the new, as well
as conventional, ideas and theories
of newspaper work.
Specific course types the stu
dent may study fall into three
categories; news and editing
work, advertising journalism, and
radio journalism.
Although the first two year's
work are devoted mainly to cul
tural study, the final two years
become more specialized. Lab
work assumes an air of realism
as students write headlines for
and read copy from regular tele
type releases, and cover assigned
"beats" for local news, filing their
stories to meet the all-important
deadline.
Students Must Type.
Since proficiency in using a
typewriter is essential for this
type of work, the student is ex
pected to have mastered its use
by the end of his sophomore year.
Providing more "practical
work" is the typography labora
tory. It has been equipped with
specially designed desks for lay
out work, with hand composition
equipment, including type cases
and cabinets, 100 cases of text.

Photo Labs Included.

of Journalism is the photography
department, with new and com

eral magazines, and related peri
odical publications, is provided
