Journalism Jump Start June
20-24, 2005
Jump start your high school
newspaper or yearbook. Join us at Northwest College this summer for a
workshop in journalism, photography and graphic design. In four days, hone
your reporting, writing, photojournalism, layout and design ability. You’ll
spend a full day brushing up and expanding your skills. Then you’ll cover
stories, ultimately producing a small newspaper printed on the final day of the
workshop to add to your portfolio.
Come with basic writing, photography
and computer skills. We’ll work on Macintosh computers to write, design and lay
out the paper as well as scan photographic negatives and use the Nikon D100 or
Canon 10D digital camera. You’ll learn more about Photoshop and desktop
publishing programs. We have added new information on yearbooks as well as a
class for advisers seeking a journalism endorsement on their Wyoming teaching
certificates. A separate fee and signup is required for the endorsement class.
Contact Dennis Davis for more information.
We encourage core staff
members and advisers for yearbooks and newspapers to attend to prepare for next
school year’s publications. Advisers who bring four or more staff members attend
free of charge. Advisers may also sign up for a three-credit undergraduate
class as part of NWC’s journalism endorsement program.
Cost totals $140
per participant (not including tuition for the credit class), which includes
room in Northwest College residence halls, meals in the NWC dining hall,
transportation during the workshop, 10 copies of the newspaper we produce and a
workshop T-shirt. Photography participants must supply their own film and camera
if not using one of our digital cameras. Participants living in the local area
who don’t require meals and lodging pay only $30. A $30 non-refundable
deposit is due by June 1. The balance is due no later than June
14.
