First Day of J2150

Coming from Wisconsin to Mizzou was a huge step in my life. Ultimately, I came for the Journalism program. After completing my freshman year, I left with a little more knowledge and a little more experience, but not enough to get a complete feel for this career path. This first semester of my sophomore year is when I plan to start more intense journalism classes, for example, J2150. 

J2150, I've heard, is demanding and at times can seem impossible. After the first day of class, the amount of information thrown upon us solidified this fear, yet made me SO excited to officially start doing hands on work in what I would someday call my career. This summer I interned as a social media intern at GMR Marketing. There I tweeted for various clients of theirs, blogged, did research, posted Facebook posts, etc. Some stuff overlapped, like the tweeting and blogging, which I think will be to my advantage this semester. Although there is so much left to learn, I'm anxious to begin this class and see what the rest of these years have in store!
