The Schieffer Summer Journalism Workshop The journalism program at Texas Christian University is looking for high school juniors and sophomores interested in an intensive college readiness program. TCU faculty introduce students to the fundamentals of digital reporting in a two-week residential program housed on the Fort Worth campus. Participants are guided by college students enrolled in the journalism program. Media professionals from Fort Worth and Dallas come in to share their expertise and experiences with students. Students develop their critical thinking and writing skills while generating story ideas, which they then report and develop into news stories. They find sources on campus, perhaps at peer camps taking place at TCU or university departments. Students produce content for a newscast and write for a website.
