Journalism Job Fair Coming January 30

From Dr. Sauders:

Dear Journalism Majors and Minors, Here's another reminder
about the Journalism Job Fair that will take place
on Saturday, January 30, 2010, at Ball State University.

We have three students who have expressed interest in
going. It's a great opportunity to gain skills in the interview
process for the future "real thing," even if you don't
plan to work for a newspaper.

They also have a few seminars/workshops during the
course of the day where you can learn much from the experts
about a number of journalistic issues.

The Job Fair is free and we will provide transportation.
As you can see below, lunch is provided free at the job
fair.

Please let me know if you're interested in going!
Dr. Sauders
