ne of the most dynamic academic areas on campus, the Journalism Program has evolved, over a period of four years, from a few courses in writing and editing to a full-fledged Major beginning in 1979-1980. Within the program, the emphasis is on doing rather then observing. According to Robin Glassman, a motivating force behind journalism, 'The journalism student today is looking for options and opportunities. Thatis why we designed the curriculum to include all media - written, spoken and visual. Student interns have worked on local newspapers such as The New Haven Register, and The Westport News. Future broadcast journalists have apprenticed at WMMM, a West- port radio Station, and STAND Inc., a Derby-based oper- ation. Those interested in public relations have had internships with the Long Wharf Theatre, and Fritz Advertising in Ham- den. Journalism students have also been involved in Southernis three campus-based publications: The Southern News, the school student newspaper, Focus, the faculty paper, and SCAN, the Southern Connecticut alumni news. Mrs. Glassman attributes journalism's increased appeal in a period of declining enrollments to the fact that the American public has become more aware of the role ofjournalism, not merely the glamorized exploits of reporters such as Woodward and Bernstein, but also of the press's necessity in creating an informed citizenry.
