  5. There’s going to be something we’re going to miss in journalism that will be very regrettable. I hope the young people who have developed Facebook and Google will say, ‘We need to fix the information system and we need to get information to people that’s well-researched and investigated.’ -- Bob Woodward, U.S. reporter of Watergate scandal 3. NEW MEDIA VERSUS OLD GATEKEEPERS

  6. Student newspapers are the training ground for future editors and journalists. There is no way to replace the hands-on experience a young writer gets conceiving a story, doing research, tracking down interviews, writing on a deadline, and having his/her work edited… This experience prepared me for my future jobs much more than most of my classes. -- Kathryn Kysar, poet and professor, Minneapolis 4. BALANCING EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES WITH INDEPENDENT, STUDENT-DRIVEN CONTENT

  7. Part II: Why motivate students with media? “Taiwan's BBS is certainly a different animal, but although it may be a good way to discuss any and all controversial subjects of the day, its authors don't really have the responsibility to get all the facts right that student journalists have.” Trista DiGenova-Chang, Taipei journalist familiar with many European universities

  9. 2. STUDENT MEDIA MOTIVATE STUDENTS TO BECOME WRITERS

  10. I've found over the years that the brightest, most thoughtful, engaged, patriotic young employees that I've ever hired were active in high school and college journalism. -- Lucy Dalglish, attorney and reporter 3. STUDENT WRITERS LEARN POLITICAL SKILLS FOR PUBLIC DISCOURSE AND DEBATE

  11. 4. STUDENT MEDIA PUT UNIVERSITIES, ADVISORS AND STUDENTS IN TOUCH WITH A WORLD OF LEARNING RESOURCES

  12. 5. STUDENT NEWSPAPER READERS SHARE AN IMAGINED COMMUNITY AND GAIN ACCESS TO THEIR UNIVERSITY’S HISTORY
