Every July, Indiana University offers week-long camps catering to students on their schools’ newspaper or yearbook staffs. From workshops on how to create a website for your publication, to classes that prepare upcoming editors in chief, the High School Journalism Institute (HSJI) offers a one of a kind experience.
“HSJI has benefitted me in many ways. Before I came here I was nervous about leading my own section, but after attending my workshops I have learned good techniques to help me manage my section so that we can be effective,” said junior Anna Boone.
In addition to twice a day workshops with specialized lessons for each position in the upcoming school year, students get to hear many lectures from professionals in the journalism work force. These professionals include IU alumni and web director of the Hearld Times Online Sarah Morin and city government reporter at Herald-Times Mike Malik.
