It sounded like it would be a fun class, and I was really thrilled by the prospect of working closely with real journalists. It ended up being one of the best classes I\u2019ve taken at UM. I don\u2019t think there are many classes that incorporate individual field work into the course work, but I gleaned some really valuable experiences from my research for this class. I got to meet the person who not only founded a youth orchestra that changed my life when I was 16 years old, but who saved one of the most beautiful and meaningful music venues I\u2019ve ever had the honor of seeing or playing in.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The relationship we all got to form with our journalist \u201cmentors\u201d created a really nice support system and kind of allowed us a foot in the door in terms of networking. I\u2019m fully planning to try to get into the world of journalism after I graduate, which isn\u2019t something I thought was possible for me before. This class gave me all of the experience I needed in order to feel confident enough to call myself a writer, and that is something that I will forever be thankful for.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read Liza&#8217;s piece about Detroit&#8217;s Paradise Theater, &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/community-journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/10\/Liza-Knight.pdf\">Long Live Paradise<\/a>.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/community-journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/10\/liza-knight-683x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-218\" width=\"313\" height=\"469\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/community-journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/10\/liza-knight-683x1024.jpeg 683w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/community-journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/10\/liza-knight-200x300.jpeg 200w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/community-journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/10\/liza-knight-768x1152.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/community-journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/10\/liza-knight-1024x1536.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/community-journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/10\/liza-knight-1365x2048.jpeg 1365w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/community-journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/10\/liza-knight-180x270.jpeg 180w, https:\/\/courses.lsa.umich.edu\/community-journalism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2021\/10\/liza-knight-scaled.jpeg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 313px) 100vw, 313px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;I decided to take Community Journalism because of a strong recommendation from Mr. Hinken.
