Student
Resources: Students in the Division of Journalism are encouraged to work
for the media resources on campus. The Daily Campus is the independent
student newspaper. SMU-TV and KPNI radio are operated by the Division of Journalism,
as is the convergence Web site smu.edu/dailydata/campusnews.html.
Additionally, internships for
all media disciplines are widely available in the extensive media market in
the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Students also have opportunities for obtaining
credit hours in the SMU-in-London program each summer. Students are encouraged
to take advantage of London's stature as an international center for media,
current affairs and social and cultural events. SMU also has a cooperative
program with American University in Washington, D.C. that allows students to
obtain credit hours for classes in journalism or other disciplines. Special
classes are also organized on a frequent basis in response to major news events,
such as political conventions. Internship credit is available for work done
in conjunction with media organizations as a part of these special classes.
