The Department of Journalism at UConn is the only nationally accredited journalism program in New England. Students learn to become intelligent, responsible, articulate journalists, and clear communicators in all forms of media through practical training and a liberal arts foundation. Marie Shanahan is the head of the department and is our guest on this episode. She began her career as a print reporter for the Hartford Courant and then moved to the digital news side and worked more than 20 years in the field. Marie gives an overview of the department and the types of classes that are offered. She also discusses how AI fits into the current world of journalism and how people can make sure they get accurate information in this day and age of fragmented reporting.
