    Overview

    The Yale Daily News Summer Journalism Program is a three-day intensive course in journalism for high school students offered in person and online. The program is run entirely by undergraduate staff members of the Yale Daily News. 

    During the course of the week, the high-school students participate in workshops on the fundamentals of reporting and writing, attend lectures by guest speakers from major national publications, and work hands-on reporting a story. The week culminates with the production of an issue of the Yale Daily News.

    The program is not limited to Connecticut residents but housing is not provided. The program is geared toward those with writing or journalism experience, but any high-school student with an interest in journalism, writing or photography is encouraged to apply.
