The National Association of Black Journalists will be traveling to Nashville next month to visit several different Media Corporations. NABJ is an organization on the UTM campus that focuses on students who are aspiring journalists, writers, and broadcasters. NABJ president Marty Conley feels that the best experience is field experience. The group will travel to Nashville on Friday April 10, 2009 to take a series of tours. First they will visit WSM radio in which they will receive a tour and have a question and answer session with the workers in order to learn more about the day-to-day operations of a radio station. After that, they will visit News Channel 5 for a station tour and will see how a live news production is coordinated. The group is very excited about the field trip because it will give them a chance to be able to get an in-depth look into the fields that interest them. Also, they will be able to speak with professionals and get tips on how to be successful in the broadcasting business once they finish college.
