<p>Indeed USC has a very good journalism program but speaking as a journalism professional, I agree with sfgiants–it was never a good idea to anticipate a well-paying job straight out of college and even less so now. The industry, as I am sure you know, is rapidly changing. If you still intend to major in journalism, make sure that you train on multiple platforms, as I am sure Annenberg will have you do, and obtain internships. But do not take on “significant” debt believing you will be able to pay it off with any speed with a job in journalism. I feel very badly saying that, but it is reality.</p>
