For college students, the key to success is preparation and opportunity. For more than 30 Howard University journalism students, that combination came to fruition when they embarked on a media tour of New York City April 4-5. Sponsored by the Howard University Association of Black Journalists (HUABJ), the journalism scholars and faculty met with more than a dozen media outlets and graduate programs, industry insiders and alumni. The Media tour has been a staple for students in the Department of Media, Journalism and Film and was the students’ first trip back to the Big Apple since the Covid-19 pandemic. NewsVision reporter Bryce Parker has the story.
