Society of Professional Journalists Welcome Back Cookout!

Kick off the new school year with a free cookout sponsored by the UMD Society of Professional Journalists! We'll be serving hamburgers, hot dogs and veggie burgers in the Knight Hall courtyard on Thursday, September 12 from 5-7 p.m. 

SPJ is a national journalism organization that is dedicated to improving and protecting journalism. UMD's student chapter connects students with professional journalists in the field and provides a community of learning outside of the classroom.  Last year's chapter events included a newsroom tour, a DSLR video workshop, trips to regional and national conferences and presentations by professional journalists and award-winning Merrill faculty.
Come learn more about SPJ and mingle with other journalism students and Merrill College faculty.  For more info, visit the Facebook event at https://www.facebook.com/events/543688945697019/?ref=22
