Below is a brief description of the course of study. See "http://faculty.users.cnu.edu/tlee/jminor.html" for more information or contact Dr. Terry Lee at 757-594-7686 or at tlee@cnu.edu.
The minor in Journalism equips students with basic news reporting experience, in-depth feature reporting and writing, professional internship opportunities in journalism or public relations writing, study in multiculturalism, advanced study in language use, experience in editing or documentary journalism, as well as experience in photojournalism or a special journalism studies topic.

Premiere Issue of a Documentary Writing & Photography Magazine.
DoubleTake/Points of Entry—Spring 2006 (Vol. 1, Issue 1). The premiere issue of the documentary narrative and photography magazine DoubleTake/Points of Entry has been published and is available by subscription from The Johns Hopkins University Press.
The magazine strives to document contemporary life in the United States and abroad to present compelling, insightful stories in words and images that open windows onto the human experience and act as catalysts for community-service efforts, to present many points of entry into human experience, encouraging a kind of serious, patient consideration of the perspectives, visions, and concerns of others.
Housed in the CNU Department of English, the magazine is a full-color print publication on matte paper that features work from well-known and not-yet-known writers and photographers from around the world.
The magazine is co-edited by Terry Lee and Roberta Rosenberg, professors in the Department of English, and Dr. Robert Coles, the James Agee Professor of Social Ethics at Harvard University. Dr. Coles co-founded DoubleTake magazine (1995-2003); Drs. Rosenberg and Lee co-founded the journal Points of Entry: Cross-Currents in Storytelling (2003-2005). DoubleTake/Points of Entry is the result of Coles’s, Lee’s and Rosenberg’s collaborative work in the last year.
Major funding from the first two years of publication and work developing and publishing Teacher’s Resource material, which is available free on the magazine’s Web site (http://www.doubletakecommunity.org), comes from a $100,000 U.S. Department of Education grant. Generous funding from the CNU Office of the Provost, Office of the Dean, and the Department of English help make the magazine possible.
Wanted—Writers, Photographers, Editors & Webmasters.
The Department of English’s online publication of CNU student writing and photography—Lookout: A Creative Nonfiction Magazine—wants to hear from serious writers, photographers, editors and webmasters. The magazine is edited by Dr. Terry Lee, who works with a student production staff to present compelling stories and photographs, from students across the curriculum. Prospective contributing writers, please see the magazine mission statementhttp://clubs.users.cnu.edu/lookout/about2.html. Prospective production staff, please contact Dr. Lee.
