Save the date, Sept. 27, 2025 for NorCal Media Day,  JEANC’s annual one-day conference to jump starting print and digital publication staffs. There will be at least four, attendee-selected sessions for print, digital, broadcast and visual student journalists as well as sessions in ethics, legal issues, and adviser concerns. There will also be the opportunity for staffs to have an onsite critique of their latest publication.

$10 per student. (We will have a limited number of scholarships if cost will keep you from attending. Stay tuned for how to apply.)

Cost includes a pizza lunch and snacks.

Adult to student ratio: No greater than 1:12. Advisers must have at least one adult onsite for every 12 students.

No walk-ins. Everyone must be preregistered to attend.
