Dear Teachers, Advisors and Friends: The Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA) is excited to open the application for JCamp, an all-expenses-paid annual multicultural journalism training program for talented high school students of diverse backgrounds. The program will celebrate its 16th year in 2016 at the George Washington University School of Media and Public Affairs in Washington, D.C., August 1 – 6. The six-day camp brings students together for intensive training in writing, photography, broadcast, online media and reporting led by professional journalists. JCamp is free and open to current freshmen, sophomores and juniors in high school. Students of all races and ethnicities are encouraged to apply before the March 13, 2016 deadline. Winter break is the perfect time for students to gather their application materials. I encourage you to pass this information along to any students you think may be interested in the program. Please contact me at danielg@aaja.org with any questions. Thank you, Justin Seiter AAJA Program Associate 415-346-2051 x104 Learn more about JCamp and the 2015 program, including last year’s faculty and students. Visit the JCamp website. |
