January 26, 201016 yr Good work, Pratt. What are you trying to do with your degree? Do people actually do design work for the publication there? Is it weekly? Monthly? It's definitely one of the more tough fields to get into, especially if you haven't worked in an official j-school setting before.

January 27, 201016 yr i wonder if the "Bill Burton" university rep, is the same Bill Burton who served as Obama's PR Man during the election?
January 27, 201016 yr Author He is not. Also, my story was the lead on the broadcast and on the website right now. It was a good day for me.
January 27, 201016 yr QUOTE (Gregory Pratt @ Jan 25, 2010 -> 08:02 PM) Have you ever heard of a 68,000$ toilet? I love how this Angela Prazza is concerned with the transgendered people on campus. Yes, let's be excited because a bathroom was built for a select group of people who don't feel comfortable in either a men's or women's bathroom. Also, anyone who goes to UIC knows UH is definitely not one of the most trafficked buildings on campus. Good article, Pratt.

February 8, 201016 yr Author Very proud of this story: Furloughs a matter of life or death on west campus For the university, furloughs are a way to save money while it waits for the state to pay its bills. For some of the poorest people in Chicago, however, furloughs are a matter of life or death.
