Students
and teachers are invited each year to enroll in the North Carolina
Scholastic Media Institute on the UNC-Chapel
Hill campus. The 2008 Institute will be June 16-19.
Instructors travel from across the state and nation to offer their expertise
in newspaper, yearbook, magazine and broadcast journalism.
The four-day Institute is open to advisers and to students who are rising ninth-graders
through 12th-graders. The schedule includes 20 hours of instruction, plus time
for a pizza party and awards presentations.
The School of Journalism and Mass Communication at
the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill sponsors the Institute. The intensive
workshop is designed to teach innovative and effective ways of communicating
through scholastic media.
Students may enroll in one of the following divisions:
newspaper, yearbook, literary magazine, photojournalism, desktop publishing
or TV news. Advisers may enroll in any of those six divisions, or they may
enroll
in the advising division. Students may also apply for staff positions on the
Rush, the Institute newspaper. Students accepted to The Rush staff will produce
the Institute’s official newspaper in three days. Students who participate
in TV news produce the Institute’s official newscast.
Regional Workshops
The
Association has divided North Carolina into eight geographic
regions. Workshops are held in the various regions annually.
Advisers and students are welcome in any regional workshop.
