The journalism program at MCM was invaluable in instilling in me the fundamental skills necessary for a successful career as a journalist -- namely accuracy, objectivity and conciseness while working on deadline. I owe my career so far to the passion, wisdom and encouragement of the faculty, who in addition to teaching me how to be a good journalist also pushed me to publish my work and submit it to public scrutiny early in my years in the program. The contacts and skills I developed while I was at AUS helped set me on the path to being a successful journalist in an ever-changing media environment with an evolving set of challenges. I wouldn't trade my time at MCM for anything.
