I love this work, but it is work. Living up to the standards of this difficult, competitive field is taxing. I have a long, long way to go. —Amanda Cochran —A journalist’s lessons (Girl Meets World)
Amanda is a junior journalism major here at SHU. I’ve asked her to speak to my “News Writing” class today.
