About the Newhouse School's J-Camp

Welcome to the Web site for the Newhouse School's J-Camp, hosted by the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University.

This is the first year for the program that gathered 10 local high school students to teach them the basics of writing, reporting, and multimedia journalism. Each student produced photos and videos for this J-Camp Web site. Each reported and wrote a profile of a classmate and of people in various professions. Each learned to create digital sketches. The students then posted all of these elements on to this Web site.

All in all, it was a busy week for the students and the directors of the program, Professors Charlotte Grimes, Robert Lloyd, and Sherri Taylor, as well as their teaching assistants Cassia Brooks and Wasim Ahmad and professor Sung Park.

Browse around the site and enjoy the work of the first 10 graduates of this program at Syracuse University.

  1. I think my students Riley Stroman, Tonielle Moore and Arielle Kaigler-Hall did wonderful jobs! The written articles are very well done, and the videos are great! I look forward to seeing more of your work showing the skills you learned next year in Journalism class!
