Publication of Chronicle concludes 2009 workshop

The Chronicle is the workshop newspaper for the Journalism Diversity Workshop for Arizona High School Students. The 12-day program is headed by Lisa Button and John deDios at the School of Journalism. The paper is produced entirely by the high school students with some help from their advisers.

The Chronicle covers news from all over the Tucson community and issues and trends concerning teens and individuals around the country.

Copies of The Chronicle are mailed to the program's sponsors and are made available for the students and their families. For those interested for a copy, please contact the school.

The UA School of Journalism has hosted the program for more than 25 years. The Journalism Diversity Workshop is sponsored by The Dow Jones Newspaper Fund.

For more information contact Lisa Button at lbutton@email.arizona.edu, or John deDios at johndediosua@gmail.com.
