Friday, October 21, 2005. Apart from the few hiccups, j-school isn't all that. That's the "real education for the real world" we're looking for. The theory-laden class that seems to be a popular topic of discussion on this blog is also rattling along. I think it has become slightly more interesting as we and the instructor get the hang of things, but I hate to think of what he and the department have coming their way via mid-term course evaluations. Let me throw this out there:. Which one do you go for?

what's wrong with the j school: September 2005
http://whatswrongwiththejschool.blogspot.com/2005_09_01_archive.html
What's wrong with the j school. This blog is intended to give journalism students a voice. It is a response to the discontent evident amongst some members of the J school. It is your chance to let the school know how it can improve. Its sister website - 'whatsrightwiththejschool.blogspot.com' is the alternative: your opportunity to express happiness derived from anything you've experienced during the Journalism degree. Fair's fair, right? Friday, September 30, 2005. Course be cleared up. It is a very lon...

Friday, November 11, 2005. Watch this: Sat Nov. 12 RDI. I have just watched a haunting report on Radio-Canada on post-war reactions from veterans from the newer wars - Gulf, Iraq, Kosovo, Rwanda. They are the perfect example that Remembrance day will not die out with aging WWII and Korean veterans. They have been deeply scarred and they have no help, no real support. One man said: "you would have done us a service to shoot us when we came back.". Posted by Melanie Holubowski at 10:11 PM. Let's face it - ...

Wednesday, October 26, 2005. Hardball for the cameras? So our Prime Minister has suddenly started playing hardball with Uncle Sam, just before Auntie Rice showed up. This is a relationship that is deep and broad and good," said (U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza) Rice. It is important not to speak in apocalyptic language about this issue. It is a trade dispute. Frankly, I think we'll get through it.". I just wouldn't be surprised if we're being taken for a ride here. Posted by Sikander at 11:11 PM.

Tuesday, November 22, 2005. Finally, a flawless newscast. In October, Mel posted a message ridden with frustration about one of our newscasts not making it to air when she was assignment editor. Today was the opposite. For Tuesday's Jour 330 class (advanced radio), this was both the second-to-last newscast and the final 'formal' newscast as next week's is a spin-off/spoof. If you're boss one day, communication, delegation skills and preparation are key! Posted by Sandra Pavlopoulos at 10:14 PM.

Thursday, November 03, 2005. Guest post: Editorial disagreement. Below is an article written by Concordia journalism student Maggie Scott which, to her surprise, didn't run in the Concordian, one of two English-language Concordia student papers, as expected. Maggie is the Production Manager at the paper. Her thoughts follow the unpublished piece. Some of the issues raised: Judging newsworthiness and editors with potential conflicts of interest. Students leave Centaur Theatre unamused. Special to the POD.

Thursday, January 05, 2006. Aaaaah. The smell of a new semester, a new year. But wait a minute? Darcy you might have jumped the gun and come to class a day early, but the journalism building is looking eerily quiet today. In our intermediate TV class today, there were four of us. Brian Gabrial, our teacher, seemed a little confused as to where everyone was. The department's secretary wasn't there today, and the light were shut off in her office.eery indeed. I'm back in business! Eager beaver not better.

Saturday, December 17, 2005. A friend just made the following comment:. There are those reporters who are real journalists . but then there are those who open up blogs and websites and portray themselves as real journalists and make up lies right and left.You can tell by the way they report/write that they are fake.highly opinionated people.It drives me crazy, especially when people site their articles as proof or whatever. I guess he hasn't seen the POD yet. Posted by Sikander at 12:20 AM.

Monday, December 05, 2005. Recap of the semester. In 35 hours, my Fall 2005 semester will be over. I am tired and my brain no longer seems to function properly. I suppose that is end-of-semester-student syndrome. I figured I should look back at the semester and see if my previous posts (J school Blues) were indeed warranted. Was the semester such a flop afterall? Wendy, from a few of my classes, including radio, suggested the department include more radio classes. I completely agree. There are 4 ...As fo...
