Journalism Class - Tuesday September 13
The professor is nowhere to be found, although his cat is in the center of his desk chain-smoking from both mouths.
Once again, there is a message on the screens that line the room.
Attention:
Today we're going to do a class exercise.
One of the most important lessons you'll learn is how to grab an audience's attention. Your employers, for the most part, will be interested in circulation numbers as opposed to thought-provoking articles and, at some point, I'll teach you how to do that.
For now, however, we'll concentrate on attention grabbing.
Journalism Students: Give me two pictures and a headline to go with them. The desired effect is to make me interested/curious enough to actually want to read whatever story is attached.
Photo-journalism students: Three pictures and no headline with the same objective as above.
Place your completed assigments on my desk.
Extra-credit will be rewarded if your assignment provokes a response from your classmates, either positive or negative.

I like yours too - I'm very intrigued by this mysterious 'Locker 327.'

I wonder what one wears for a possibly perilous expedition such as this - other than one's explorer hat, of course.
