In my junior year of high school, as I established the first official student newspaper Assumption High had seen in years, my interest in journalism flourished into passion. That summer I discovered the Louisiana Scholastic Journalism Institute, a weeklong workshop hosted by the Manship School of Mass Communication here at Louisiana State University. It is designed to teach high school students hands-on about the fields of print and broadcast journalism, all while spending the week on the beautiful campus of LSU. I loved every second of it.
