Gloucester County Times Trip

Gloucester County Times Trip

The trip to Gloucester County Times was by far my favorite trip as of this year. Being journalism major, I found the trip to the local newspaper very informative on many levels. Of course this trip was enlightening due to the massive amount of details given by the editor along with the Rowan alumni. On another level, a lot could be learned by just being in the newsroom itself.

I especially liked the small atmosphere of the local paper. It is definitely the type of atmosphere I would personally like to start at when coming out of the college setting. By speaking to the editor along with the editor of the entertainment section and the other Rowan alumnus, it seems that they all see their positions as a stepping stone to greater opportunities.

I was also very impressed with how they handled our group of students and how they presented themselves along with the multiple offers of internships in addition to part time opportunities.

Overall, I feel our trip to Gloucester County Times was a very influential and informative trip that definitely should be repeated in semesters to come.
