Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Economics, Business and Management - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 10
Abstract
Abstract: This study aimed to analyze and evaluate the practices on Campus Journalism so as to come up with management implications as regards student services. Using purposive samplings, 26 campus-wide publication faculty-advisers, 78 student-journalist and 140 students were given questionnaires and were interviewed from the 26 HEI’s in the region out of the 66 HEI’s with an existing student publication. Findings reveal that the editorial board, policies, funding, press conferences and the rules and regulations are still in the process of being institutionalized within the system. Many of the provisions of the R.A. 7079 of the Campus Journalism Ac are not yet fully implemented. There is a need to increase faculty and students’ support and to strengthen administrative collaboration. Campus journalism in the region served as the voice of the students, gave out information, helped to form public opinion, discussed issues and safeguarded the HEI’s from its own adequacies. In order for the student publication services become more responsive to the present changes, it is recommended that an upgrading and streamlining of the student services based on the needs and goals of the students should be initiated so as to make the campus journalism proactive and student-focused. Keywords: campus journalism, press freedom, student services, student publication, educational management, R.A. 7079, campus journalism act, student publication management
