    "As a journalism student preparing for tomorrow's workforce, remember that all the new skills you can possibly pick up won't help you be a better journalist. They can only give you new ways to tell your stories. It will always be on you to find the good stories, and ask the hard questions, in order to provide real journalism to your audience."
    J. Jarman
