Make Independent Journalism Lincoln a society of the University of Lincoln so that every student has a creative outlet
The University of Lincoln's first Independent Journalism Society needs YOU! :D We are currently in the process of establishing a society dedicated to Journalism and all its contituent areas (writing, photography, media etc.). This is because of the relative lack of societies dedicated to Journalism, but also because many people interested in such things need work experience. We aim to provide this by setting up an online news periodical which will initially be published twice a week, but we need YOU to help us achieve this! If (or when) we get society status (which we are hoping to achieve at the next societies council), membership will begin in September. However, we have plans to have the website up and running by early Summer which we will be publishing articles, photos etc on from the word go :) there will of course be a code of conduct/guidelines to cover legal matters and university related issues, but this will not stop anyone writing for us :) Join us in September and you will get included in your membership fee: - tea, coffee and biscuits at meetings - shots at socials - journalist's mini notepad and pen (if you specialise in writing) - mini photo album (if you specialise in photography) - CD portfolio at the end of the year (if you have 5 or more published articles) - awards night at the end of the year - plus more There are no entry qualifications, no strict guidelines and no picking and choosing. Everyone is welcome to join :) A petition is not needed for this but we would like to show how enthusiastic so many students already are about this!!
