You know, journalism isn’t like business. You don’t get “prestigious job offers” right out of college, and you’ll have to do lots of internships after school to get into most top-20 newspapers. You won’t walk out of college and into the New York Times.



Not exactly true, at least not with Syracuse. I don’t know about the other schools, but there have been several SU Newhouse grads in recent years who got picked up at major magazines/newspapers right after college. Same thing with sports broadcast journalism. One example is the person who interviewed Terrell Owens earlier this fall when he made the remarks that got him cut from the Philadelphia Eagles. The interviewer was a freshman at Syracuse and had already interviewed Muhammed Ali and Adam Sandler.
