Participants will develop basic reporting skills: interviewing anyone anywhere, news judgment, writing compelling articles and pitching them to editors. Students will also practice thinking like reporters, crafting and pitching ideas, ridding their writing of clutter, fact-checking their work and keenly observing the city.
