[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Journalism. I am shocked anyone still goes to J school. It is totally possible to go into journalism without a J school degree and the job market is bad so why spend money/take on debt for a field that doesn't pay well and where it isn't necessary. I have an MPH and there were a lot of government and think tank jobs available to me once I got my degree. So I am glad I did it.[/quote] It isn't necessary for good reporting, but the bias in hiring is almost as bad as in law firms. Mike Royko would never be able to get a job today.[/quote] Really? My husband is a journalist and most of the people he hires haven't gone to J school. Instead they wrote for their school paper and/or interned somewhere during or after college. It is a good field for working your way up if you are willing to do things that aren't glamorous (covering zoning hearings, etc).[/quote]
