This program doesn’t waste time lecturing students. This is a hands-on program. You will learn skills to get a job in journalism. Students learn by producing Palomar’s student newspaper The Telescope, or campus magazine, called IMPACT magazine. For more information, contact Journalism Professor Erin Hiro at ehiro@palomar.edu or by calling (760) 744-1150 ext. 3762 Or stop by the new newsroom in Humanities 103.
