Journalists are trained to tell the stories of others and leave
themselves out of their writing. Student journalists are no
different. They spend their days on their college newspaper writing
about what happens to others, especially when what is happening
involves protests, sit-ins, riots, hunger strikes and other unrest
on the very campuses where they also attend school. Now some of
these former student reporters and editors tell their own stories
of some of the challenges all student journalists face in reporting
events that most administrators would rather see not covered at
all. For some, this is the first time the stories of what happened
in the newsrooms and behind the scenes will appear in print. Some
of the issues they discuss include censorship, the role of the
newspaper as the conscience of the community, objective and
activist journalism and the challenges of reporting crises. The
protests covered here represent the many concerns college student
protesters have tackled through the decades: integration in 1962,
the free speech movement of 1964, racial issues and the Vietnam War
in 1968 and 1970, and continuing racial issues in the present. Many
of these former student journalists look back decades to their work
in the 1960s. Some discuss a more recent protest. Looking back,
they admit they might have done things differently if they had to
do it again, yet all are fiercely proud of the work they did in
recording the first version of history.
