In addition to our specialized classes, we get together as a group a couple of times a day and bring in speakers to talk about design, photography, Web publishing, communication law, editing and journalism's role in society. The instructors are University of Florida faculty members, distinguished high school publications advisers and brilliant UF journalism students such as Ken Walters , who directs Summer Times. We also offer courses for journalism advisers, so tell your teachers to let us know what sort of course offerings they want. It's called a workshop, so there is a lot of work. But we want you to have fun, and we take good care of you.
Students stay in a university residence hall and eat in the newest dining hall on campus.
And it all takes place on the drop-dead gorgeous campus of The University of Florida . That includes all instruction, housing and meals. We strongly encourage students to apply for scholarships. The newspapers of Florida have a history of helping to send students to SJI with full or partial scholarships. If you want information on scholarships, write or email to the addresses below.
