invite you to our first general body meeting of the semester

Welcome Back!
As student chapter president of the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism Association of Black Journalists I am happy to have the Class of 2008 returning and would like to extend a warm welcome to the Class of 2009.
The CUNY J-School ABJ is an affiliated student chapter of the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ). The CUNY J-School ABJ was established in 2008 to create a strong union among black students pursuing graduate degrees in journalism and to exchange ideas ad information concerning the portrayal of minorities in the media.
As the semester begins, we would like the entire student body to participate in the chapter. We are open to ideas on everything from programs/events, membership outreach, community service, fund raising, and etc. If you would like to be added to our listserv, please feel free to contact me. For more info, stayed tuned to our website. Also, join us on Facebook!!!!
