Journalism

The Journalism and Mass Communications program emphasizes writing for the print media and serves a twofold purpose: to prepare students for transfer to a four-year college or university and to provide entry-level skills to those who want to change careers.

Facilities for the Journalism program include a modern computer equipped newsroom and production lab overlooking the LBCC courtyard.

Photography classes are supported by a series of fully equipped instructional darkrooms and electronic imaging labs.

Students enrolled in the Journalism program must complete a minimum of three credits of Cooperative Work Experience as interns at local newspapers, businesses, public information offices or the student newspaper.
