broadcast outcast

Welcome.  I say this somewhat tongue-in-cheek, as assuredly no one who does not know me will be reading this for some time.  Nevertheless, we all must start somewhere.  So here is my jump point.

The goal of this blog is to inform the masses, or at the very least a niche crowd, about what life is like going into and during graduate studies in journalism.  My hope is to keep up with the blog and possibly a twitter when I become swamped with work in the next year in order to give a glimpse into what life is like.  To be honest, I don’t really know what to expect.  I don’t know where this blog will take me.  I just know that I need to do it.  I think a year from now, some kid like me will appreciate having the information before him.  I’ve had to troll message boards, such as collegeconfidential and thegradcafe in order to gather up my knowledge.  Hopefully this blog lessens the learning curve for future aspiring j-school students.  I’m completely open to suggestion as to content and format, but I have my ideas.  Implementation–now there’s the rub.
