We live in a vast world with many different people - different ages, races, cultures, hopes, dreams, aspirations. Sometimes it seems as though our differences are great and our commonalities are small. But in reality, we're all in it together in the human experience. Every person has a story to share. Every person's life will inevitably touch others.
Every person has a unique contribution to make and a legacy to leave upon our world.
Journalism can highlight these similarities and tie people together that may live oceans apart. News stories can bridge the gap across individuals, families and nations. It can remind people of what is going on in the world and how the lives of other people may affect their own. This fact is the reason I am studying journalism. I am currently a journalism major at Miami University.
