Working Well at University of Wisconsin-River Falls
Permalink   


From Sandy Ellis

We're a small department (4 full-time faculty, 3 adjuncts) with about 150 Journalism majors in a university of 6,000. The break down on majors by interest is usually about half broadcast and half print.

We have a public radio station (FM) operated by students, a weekly newspaper and the opportunity to produce short newscasts (via cable TV) inside a magazine format program produced by another department.

With a recent curriculum revision we're slowly moving towards convergence (with the speed and grace of an oil tanker) but don't have much to show for it yet.
