Placement Office Aided "Mizzou Mafia"
|
The School of Journalism Placement Office reported referring 3,675 students and alumni to 469 job openings, in addition to arranging 103 groups of interviews for graduating seniors. The office found jobs for 116 graduates, who became part of the group later known unofficially as the "Mizzou Mafia" for the strength of its alumni connections in job searches.
Journalism seniors scanned the Placement Office notices for good opportunities to become part of the "Mizzou Mafia." Missouri Journalism students were in demand because of their real-world reporting experience with state and local officials (bottom right), who were often dubbed by the Journalism Students Association as "downtown professors."
