    EP 11: The Importance of Journalism with COVID-19 on a College Campus

    In this episode, I have a conversation with the Editor-in-Chief of the Old Gold and Black, the student newspaper at my University since 1916.  We have a conversation about the importance of journalism and the need for young people to be keeping up with the news. Especially right now with students having to come back to campus with the risk of getting COVID-19. Student newspapers have strong ties with faculty, staff, and administration, and It important now more than ever for students to stay engaged with college newspapers in order to receive the safe transparency. We are living in such difficult and complicates times, where we are often surrounded by fake news. Read your college newspaper, stay up to date on what is happening around the world. You may learn something new or debunk the information you believed to be true. Tune in and experiences how we see the world.
