Much satisfaction today reading a blog by a former student, Tevy Pilc, who’s magazine won the Independent Publishers Association of Ontario award this spring of 2010 for the best student magazine — produced and conceived and published by four students in my course at the University of Toronto’s joint program in journalism with Centennial College.
It’s called CHOMP magazine. I have written about it before.
But finding Tevy’s blog about how proud he was of this magazine, was heartening, as we begin a new semester tomorrow with this magazine course at 8:30 a.m. It’s deeply satisfying to know that as a teacher, I did have some small part to play in helping my journalism students develop and grow and create amazing stories. Way to go CHOMP!
