Should would-be journalists pursue undergraduate degrees in journalism?
Article Abstract:
Debate over the need for a journalism undergraduate degree includes the position that it is useful because the programs spend more time on liberal learning activities than in any other major. About 75% of course work is taken outside the journalism school. The opposing argument claims these programs should be abolished because undergraduates should major in fields that will help develop critical minds.
