PROFESSORS, as this is a STUDENT event, please forward this invitation to your student representatives so that they can register themselves.

*********************

The New York Times is pleased to announce our 10th annual “Student Newspaper Editors’ Workshop” will take place Friday, April 7th at The New York Times headquarters. This full-day workshop is for newspaper editors who attend colleges and universities that integrate Times’ content.

Program Description

Student newspaper editors will have the opportunity to work directly with Times’ editors and reporters to explore the role of a newspaper in contemporary society, develop their journalistic skills, and discuss the various aspects of the newspaper from the newsroom and editorial to advertising. They also will participate in a workshop on the editing process. Finally, there will be time to interact with other student editors from around the country.

Participants

While it is preferred that student newspapers send the current editor and the incoming editor, campuses may invite the two most appropriate student representatives. There is no registration fee, although participants must pay their own travel and accommodation expenses.
