TKleiner @ WJMC

I am so excited to be at the WJMC! I think that it is so great that there  are people from all over the country with similar interests to my own coming together in one place. From what I can tell the conference will be a great experience that I will gain much knowledge  from.

For the 2009-2010 school year I will be the editor of my high school’s newspaper, The Cavalier Courier. I am also a Youth Correspondent for my local paper, The Carroll County Times. This upcoming school year I will also be hosting a clip show, CETV Newsmakers: On the Positive side, on the local station. I also love listening to radio talk shows and find photojournalism to be very interesting. I know that I want to be involved in journalism, whether it be print, TV, photojournalism,or radio broadcast, and I am hoping that the conference will help me narrow down my interests, or find a way to incorporate them all into my career.

Since I am unsure of what type of journalism I want to persue, thoughout the week I will attempt to publish many different types of journalism on my blog. I think that in order to choose which path to take with journalism I need to continue to publish all types and learn more about them. I can’t wait for the WJMC to help me!
