What do Justin Bieber and MIPA have in common? In addition to a love for YouTube, we’re both embracing changes this year.

In an effort to have students interact with their journalism peers from across the state, we are moving away from a traditional Write-Off contest. Students will have the opportunity to participate in a Strategic Communication Scavenger Hunt on the Mizzou campus.

Students will be working together in groups to complete journalism challenges at various locations across the Mizzou campus. They will be putting their interviewing, photography, writing, social media and broadcast skills to use. Students will be checking in via Social Media, and will be using their voices and skills to promote the importance of journalism in a fun and collaborative environment.

For more information, check your email from the ListServ.
