Joey Safchick, rising freshman, Medill School of Journalism, Northwestern University
“I went to Newsroom by the Bay with minimal journalism experience, just a deep passion for reporting and writing. During the intense and exciting seven days I spent at Stanford, the incredible staff helped me hone in on my journalism skills, giving me the opportunity to start a digital news platform at my school the following fall, and intern at the LA Times the next summer. I made long-lasting relationships with my knowledgable and extremely friendly teachers and leaders.”
