Portfolios

Each student on staff is required to keep a portfolio.  This is an on-going assignment that yeilds a hefty collection of writing and design elements before the student graduates.  Last week, I had a young lady who is now a junior in college and returning to the newspaper staff at her university.  She was seeking missing items for her portfolio so she could "skip" some of the beginning writing courses in the journalism school.  I have also had students "clep" English classes and other communication courses based on the quality of their journalism portfolios.
