Journalism is a good career choice because you are always learning something new. Everyday can be different and exciting. You have many options in the field of journalism. It could be in production paginating and editing, it could be community news or investigative journalism. It's a versatile field.
A career in journalism allows you the opportunity to stay current with what is happening in your world and a journalist is dedicated to relaying that information.
At Loyalist I learned a lot about integrity, honesty and hard work. The journalism programs at Loyalist instill character qualities that can be beneficial in all areas of your life. I learned to be a proficient writer and editor and I gained an eye for good news photography.
Every paper is evolving to be more concentrated on the internet as a way to get the news out. Having online journalism skills will make any reporter a more valuable asset as they have the ability to work with video, text, photos and sound for the web.
