You will also each have a class partner. A week before each paper's first draft is due, I want you to both meet to discuss each other's draft. If you complete all these assignments you get a 100 for this portion of your grade. If you miss more than five in class assignments, you fail the class. In-class participation and effort can move final mark one full grade up or down.
Deadlines are important in journalism.
You must turn in papers at the beginning of class on due dates. Late papers will be severely penalized. All papers must have a list of everyone mentioned in print. The source's day and night telephone numbers and e-mail address must be listed. All stories must be e-mailed to each of the sources at the due date with a cc copy sent to me.
