Each year, high-achieving students from across the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications are offered an insider’s view of their chosen field through participation in the school’s benchmark immersion trips to the nation’s media capitals. The trips enliven students’ optimism as they prepare to move from the University to the workplace and provide opportunities for personal encounters with industry leaders—many of whom are SU alumni.
For students in the school’s television, radio, and film (TRF) program, the trip naturally brings them to the West Coast. In January, 10 seniors and 18 graduate students came to L.A., where from sunup to well past sundown their schedule was packed with speakers and panels of industry leaders, tours, and opportunities to view tapings of television shows, including The Young and the Restless and Two and a Half Men. “To be honest, there’s not even a lot of time to eat,” said program coordinator Shelly Griffin. “We do that deliberately to give students the best possible overview of the field, and so they can meet as many professionals as possible.” Griffin credits the school’s alumni with making the benchmark trips so successful by giving generously of their time, talents, and resources. “SU has such loyal, devoted alumni,” she said. “We couldn’t do this without the amazing help and support we receive from them.”
For Brian Greene ’09, the trip made feasible the idea of working in L.A. after graduation. “I realized there is a large network of SU alumni out there, which reassures me that moving to L.A. is a definite possibility,” said Greene, a TRF and music industry major. “We met with so many different people in the industry, from kids who just moved out there last year who are production assistants, to Universal Studios president Ron Meyer, and everything in between. It was an incredibly educational and enlightening trip.”
