Description:

The Student Newspaper Survival Guide is a hands-on-guide for student reporters, editors, page designers, photographers, Webmasters, and advertising sales representatives -- as well as the advisers and business managers who counsel them -- on all aspects of putting out a college newspaper. Updated to reflect the incredible changes in the media industry over the past few years, the second edition includes new chapters on social media and multimedia tools for reporting and distributing the news and encouraging community interaction. Fresh new examples have been pulled from recent headlines in college newspapers around North America.
