Frost Library, CHI Seminar Room

Stellar writing skills, a love of storytelling, and a desire to impact our communities and culture. These connective threads unite generations of Amherst alumni and students, and are the foundations of a successful career in journalism. Explore the possibilities for your own work through this in-depth discussion with three distinguished alumni who’ll share the details of their trajectories into daily news, investigative reporting, and science and data journalism.

ALUMNI PANELISTS
Aleszu Bajak ’06, freelance science journalist and graduate programs manager at Northeastern University's School of Journalism
Luis Ferre Rangel ’88, former Editor in Chief of El Nuevo Día & current Chief Social Innovation Officer of Grupo Ferré Rangel
Diana Babineau Owen ’14, Managing Editor, In These Times

EVENT DETAILS
Each panelist will speak for 10-15 minutes, providing students with an overview of their own career trajectory and some tips for the trade. Following a general Q&A, we will break into small group discussions where students will have the opportunity to ask more direct questions about networking in the field, application advice, and the wide range of job possibilities in journalism.
