Every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in this Columbia College Chicago Catalog; however, the Catalog is not a contract but rather a guide for the convenience of students. Columbia College Chicago reserves the right to change or withdraw courses; to change the fees, rules, and calendar for admission, registration, instruction, and graduation; and to change any of its policies or other provisions listed in the Catalog at any time.
Course teaches the wide range of skills necessary to write for and edit consumer and trade magazines. It includes a brief survey of the magazine industry with emphasis on what makes some magazines succeed while others fail. Students apply this knowledge when writing several articles of varying lengths for different magazine audiences while simultaneously acting as editors for their peers.
