Journalism Program Student Work

We believe the learning process isn’t complete until you practice your skills out in the world. SOJC journalism students hone their skills through real-world, hands-on learning opportunities at internships, publications, student organizations, and more. By the time they graduate, our students have portfolios full of published work. Check out some of their projects:
