Question: Why come to adviser workshops at
Ball State?
Answer: We've been helping support high school journalism for more than 50 years. Our commitment to helping advisers improve their craft is central to that mission.

In addition to the wide variety of adviser classes we offer, advisers coming for workshops are able to earn graduate credit for application to teacher license renewal or a graduate degree. Many advisers also are able to transfer credits to other universities.

Most importantly, you'll get the best instruction in the best facilities in the country. Coming to Ball State's adviser workshops will help you best help your students.
