Friday September 3, 2010

Please remember that The Proust Questionaire is due before class on Tuesday.
As well, turn in your signed criteria sheets and photo release- the latter if you wish- by Tuesday to receive full credit.

The First Amendment to the Constitution provides core values to our lives. As journalists this defines what you can write. This has evolved over the last 200 years. It is imperative that you understand this process and key cases that have impacted this process. Hence the one text you are reading this year is Freedom for the Thought We Hate by Anthony Lewis. I am passing out the text in class. This is yours to mark up. On Friday 17 September you will have a written assessment on the key concepts. I will provide a list by this Tuesday. With the exception of today, this is outside class work. On Tuesday in class, we'll begin history of journalism projects.

MAKE SURE TO MEMORIZE THE FOLLOWING!

Amendment Text

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
