My Encounter with English
Journalism at The Argus
In April 1979, when I joined my school’s campus English paper, The Argus, as a
cubreporterjustonemonthafterstartingmyfreshmenactivities,Iwasbusygetting
accustomed to understanding how a reporter gathers news and writes a story in
English. The life at The Argus clearly helped me experience an awakening to the
worldofEnglishjournalism.
At the time, there was almost no smack of amateurism at the office of The
Argus.Inretrospect,someofmyseniorstudentreporterswerealmostprofessional
reporters who appeared to know almost everything about how to make a good
English paper. Just by reading the front page of the year’s May issue, you would
know how much my seniors were qualified to perform their jobs. The revelation
should be that word usages in both the headlines and main bodies of the articles

Several years after I graduated, I managed to land a job in the English news
division of a news organization. And I found myself using the same expressions
and rules for writing English news articles that I picked up during my days at The
Argus.IcherishmyencounterwithEnglishjournalismatthestudentpaper.
