HI! I'm a high school senior who is interested in Journalism or Writing. I feel like God is calling me to either one of those careers. I need to find a college that will help me to succeed in either of those careers. I would like for you answerers to just name a few. Possibly in Texas, Illinois or, Indiana

Hi, I have been freelancing for almost 20 years and what I have learned is that Medill School of Journalism in Illinois is a great place to go to school. Why? Because one of the best newspapers in the nation, the Chicago Tribune, actively recruits new graduates from this school to work for their newspaper. There are also internships available, and they always seem to take Medill graduates to fill those internships. I have freelanced for many years for the Tribune and wish I would have gone to Medill simply because I've seen how many doors are opened to Medill graduates. I, myself, graduated from Northern Illinois University and majored in English, not journalism. I don't know of good schools in Texas or Indiana, but if you decide on Illinois, make it Medill! Hope this helps you. Stefanie Dell'Aringa, West Dundee, IL
