In fact, a primary objective of this course is to make certain that you publish your feature stories in non-campus South Florida publications this summer. If you do the assigned work, this will happen. All written work, which will be the majority of the work in this class, will be based on assignments done off campus. You will have opportunities write stories for local newspapers. Since this is also a reporting class, your work is expected to be accurate and factual.
All stories are to be written for publication.
As noted above, there will be assignments off campus that you are required to complete. Excessive cuts may lead you to be dropped from the course. Do not cut and do not arrive late. Attendance may adversely affect your grade if you miss more than one or two classes. Please also remember to turn off cell phones during class sessions.
