FRO 2012: BWA

My favorite Enrichment Workshop was definitely the Journalism workshop we attended in October. Since I’m hoping to major in Journalism, I found it to be particularly interesting. I liked the Rubin Museum very much as well, but this was definitely my favorite. I love the idea of integrity in Journalism and think it’s unbelievably important, so I’m very happy that it was essentially the main focus of the workshop. I liked the story of the supposedly “diseased” girl too, it showed how much the media really just makes facts up for a good story. We also learned the importance of fact checking and how to figure out whether or not a source is credible, which is also very important when dealing with news outlets. Overall, I thought that it was the most relevant Enrichment Workshop we attended (not that Nepalese art isn’t relevant, but you know…) and I really enjoyed it!
