For the last year I've been at Stanford University as a student and I've had time to read the newspaper.

I like to say that journalism is the graduate school from which you never graduate.

Journalism classes would have been interesting to me.

After I left high school and got my GED, I studied broadcast journalism for a year at a community college.

I'm a Stanford kid through and through.

I'm not a big fan of journalism schools, except those that are organized around a liberal arts education. Have an understanding of history, economics and political science - and then learn to write.

When I was in college, there were a couple years there where I was just not sure what to do, and it was actually my mom who suggested I take some journalism classes.

When I finished grad school, I sort of fell into journalism. Someone mentioned that there was an entry-level job at the Reuters News Agency. I applied, and, to my amazement, I got the job.

I started out in the journalism program, but I got kicked out. I wasn't very good at it. It wasn't where I wanted to be ultimately.
