Notice: Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the updraftplus domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

Among the classes in DePaul\u2019s WRD program<\/a>, there are several you would probably find clones of in other similar programs around the country. But in pursuit of a professional writing career through the program a class like Professor Justin Staley<\/a>\u2019s WRD 284: Sports Writing in America: Myths, Memories, Heroes and Villains, you\u2019re bound to learn a variety of skills that will help in a variety of writing work capacities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just because the class is about sports writing doesn\u2019t mean you necessarily have to take that professional route after graduation. It\u2019s also possible you\u2019ll fall in love with the topic and want to find a way to incorporate what you\u2019ve learned into your career path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Job Boards<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For more traditional media jobs there are still plenty of job boards out there specifically designed with those jobs in mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
