Recently, we, the faculty of the media
arts and communication program at Eastern Oregon University, have had a hard
time convincing the administrators to not cut the journalism faculty position
in anticipation of the retirement of our only journalism faculty at the end of
next June. We simply believe journalism is the vital organ for our democracy.
Without journalism, how will we teach the younger generations to become engaged
citizens of American democracy? Here, I want you to join us to argue for the
continuation of journalism education at Eastern. What is your best argument to
hit home the point?
