Our Magnificent Interview with Jackie

This week our class interviewed Jackie. Jackie went to South Caraliona University for college.  Scott was her inspiration to become a journalist. Jackie said if she had a different job she would own a Bakery. Her job is a Associate Director of Student Media. Jackie said she had to triple check her work so, she doesn't make any mistakes. She loves working with college student because there fun and interesting. They are fun because they are learning and growing. They are learning about themselves and the world. Reviewing your work is very important. Sometimes your first idea is not your best idea. Part of her job is to critique students work in the newspaper. You want to be sure that all of your facts are correct. She has had four people check over her work. Her advice for her students was to reread there work and ask themselves how do they know it. When ever you publish something it's hard to get it back. Your reputation could be damaged. She thinks we should find a mentor in college, so he or she can help you succeed.
