I'm a journalism major and the classes here are a waste of time! The only reason I attended this school was because it was highly recommended from my past teacher. So, instead of going straight to Cal State Long Beach I went here. My first semester on the Collegian newspaper was a horrible experience. I went there to learn how to write better get published articles for an internship at the LA Times. What a load of crap. The paper is run by the students, so they pick and choose what students publish and the teacher and department head can't do a thing about it. I made several complaints yet I saw no change. I was really disappointed in the time I wasted here. I really was looking forward to learning how to become a better writer and journalist. Now I'm only enrolling next semester just for the credits I need transfer, I might as well it's not like they truly care. My suggestion for those who are journalism majors, DO NOT attend here and attend another school like Pierce College. I had a better experience there and the instructors are now involved unlike here at LACC. It's just too far now that I'm working closer to home. Good luck!
