Students will immerse themselves in the West Side neighborhood of Austin, producing stories about this undercovered community in a multi-media, deadline-oriented newsroom environment. This course offers a unique opportunity for students to get to know an underserved area and give voice to its residents as they cover education, crime and other key issues. The emphasis will be on meeting deadlines, collaborating with others and producing multi-media work that gets published immediately.
