[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]word to the wise about radio and newspaper - those aren't generally social, radio in particular.  you may have a zoom once a term, but otherwise you get your time slot and then you're alone in a booth - or at some schools - broadcasting from your own laptop in your own room. Newspapers also a lot of assignments, not a lot of milling about a newsroom like an old movie. [/quote]

Funny: For me, the student newspaper and the radio station were the two places where I found my people.

Sure, sometimes I'd be by myself in the studio booth while doing a radio shift, but there was a lounge right next to it with all the record shelves where people hung out and talked and pulled out records or CDs for their upcoming shifts, and discussed what bands were coming to our town. And the newspaper had weekly meetings to discuss upcoming stories, and we'd hang out afterward. Both groups had parties about every two weeks, which was good for me to be able to study but have fun too.

So anyway, that was in the '90s, but I imagine it's similar now at many schools![/quote]

Records and CDs! Nah it’s all online now [/quote]

I don't know--my gen z/gen alpha kids are all into vinyl and cds. [/quote]

My kids too.  It's all about the vinyls.  I wish I had saved my collection from the 80's.  [/quote]
