Welcome to EL 227, "News Writing"

The course website is located at http://blogs.setonhill.edu/DennisJerz/EL227. I will update the site periodically, so the printout I gave you is only for your convenience today. The page you will want to consult most frequently is the outline (which lists all assigned readings and the due dates for major assignments).

Your first homework involves watching a local TV news broadcast tomorrow evening or tomorrow night, and reading a printed copy of the Greensburg Trubine-Review. (While I'm listing the homework as being due on August 31, please note that the assignment asks you to do the work on August 30.)

Feel free to post questions on the site -- I'll be happy to clarify whenever I can. (You can also contact me privately, if you don't wish to make your comment public.)
