So, I am having a tough time with my second out-of-class story for Journalism 200 because nobody seems to want to help out. I emailed about 30 MSU professors Sunday night, and twenty of them replied with douchey responses. My favorite was "NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. Contact our department" (in regard to a series of attached questions if they were not available for a face-to-face interview).
Luckily, I have all of my student interviews out of the way and two interviews set for tomorrow with a person from the Collegiate Employment Research Institute, and with someone from the Alumni Career Services.
If those two don't provide me with enough information (which I am nearly positive of), I think I might switch my story to the problem of graffiti on campus, or as the artists call it, "street art."
I just found out that one of my friends is someone who does this on occasion and think it would be interesting to get their viewpoint of it. I'll have to contact someone from campus who is educated on the matter and maybe I can even get someone from local government to talk about it.
Well that just about does it for 200 words. I'm going to get my economics crap out of the way so that I'll be ready for Thursday's midterm.
The point of this post is that, unfortunately, you're going to have to do the bare minimum on a few things if you signed up for 12 summer credits. BUT, you can still do a kick-ass job on your out-of-class stories.
