We’re almost there!


Preparations for tomorrow’s alumni event are almost complete! With the special speakers arriving from 2pm the University of Lincoln will certainly feel a real buzz from post graduate students coming back to talk and share their experiences. Some of the first students who graduated from the Lincoln school of Journalism are sharing their stories alongside very recent alumni. We are very excited to hear how the course has changed and developed over time.

“Looking forward to taking part in the @UL_journalism Alumni Event in a few weeks – better start my speech! #tothepoint,” Rhodri Jeremiah is one of the many speakers coming to the event who has been tweeting us through our official twitter page.

With the speakers boasting a range of awards, from Daniel Ionescu winning the Chairman’s Award for Online Media in 2013 to Andrew Morton joining the world-renowned Red Arrows to lead their PR team; we are honoured to be able to participate and be inspired by their achievements.
