Is it better to get good grades or to make connections?
Hi, there! I'm curious as to how to succeed in school, and I'd love to know what my priorities should be. A lot of people have told me that connections are the best resource we get from college, and that it's what most helps with our aspirations. I'm hoping to become a photojournalist, and I've become involved in various clubs, and I've also gone on some career fair/networking events on and off campus. At the same time, I'm doing my best to maintain a 4.0, though it's becoming harder as time passes. So I figured: why not try to figure out what I need to focus on and make time for? So to anyone who's already "made it", what got you to where you are: grades or connections? #journalism #online-media #online-journalism #broadcast-media #broadcast-television #writing-and-editing #writer #photojournalism #networking
