Alumni Aaron Saunders visits

        During North Carolina Central University homecoming alumni Aaron Saunders journalist for The Daily Republic came to speak to the students in the mass comm department. Saunders come to speak on his struggle to work in his profession. He talked about his journey that lead him through college to work as a journalist in South Dakota. He explained the value of having an internship saying that if we want to work in our profession we need to feel out continuous internship applications until we get one.
         Mr. Saunders made a point to the class that i now live by its not were you start it's were you finish. When i first came to college i had no clue to what i wanted to do, but now I'm getting the feel of what i want to do with my life. Listening to Mr. Saunders i now see that news is the the key to entering the media industry. Everything involves news and current events for example the LA riots and the rap industry N.W.A was talking about this event in their music. So what every i want to do weather it's a radio personality or a recording artist it's still informing people whats going on in that particular era. listening to Mr. Saunders for three class periods it made me think and gave me that push to continue shooting for my dreams.
