JOU 251 Sports Journalism

Sports and athletes-pro and college- constantly make compelling news and offer rich sources for story telling and investigation. This part of journalism has been "multimedia" since radio and TV began; in this class sports students will become adept at the diverse skills today's journalism requires, including previewing and covering games in written and visual media; blogging; and using social media. Like athletes, journalists can only get better with practice-and this class will provide students hands-on opportunities to cover sports and raise their games.
