What a Great Class

Thursday's class was by far the best class I've had here at Syracuse. Bob Costas was everything I was hoping he would be. He had great advice, great stories about his career and his experiences here as a student. I was really impressed with great of a speaker Costas was. He really knows how to engage his audience through humor and strong words. Herb Weisbaum also was really impressive. I didn't really know who he was before I looked up his biography on the web. He has done really great work for the community with his consumer reports. He showed how key it is to take the extra step when reporting. He emphasized how important it is to get to a story before the newspapers do. Finally Dave Cohen showed us how we can really expand our career as we mature as a broadcasters. Overall this is an experience I will truly value throughout the rest of my career in broadcasting.
