<p>I made a topic like this myself. A friend was having the same or similar doubts about a journalism degree as you were having. Instead he considered graphic design or psychology with the intent on building a portfolio by contributing to his schools paper. From the responses I got people said the degree certainly isnt necessary and my friend even spoke to our english proffessor about it and he confirmed this.</p>
<p>Thogh, I think political science classes would certainly help a journalist in informing the public about a country’s political system and whatnot so your still on the right track regardles. I think.</p>
