Overview of class

The goal for each student in this course is to develop a distinctive voice that stands out from the cacophony of opinions in the sporting world, to create commentary that is informative, thought-provoking and entertaining and to adapt those messages for delivery across multiple media platforms:  the written word, television, radio, podcasts and social media.

Students will learn to coalesce their observations, opinions and experiences into compelling arguments that reflect the essence of the sports column: "I'm right, and this is why."
