MSU IS AN AWESOME PLACE FOR A WORKSHOP Held on the most beautiful campus in the Midwest (yes, we’re biased), our workshop is the place you’ll want to be this summer. You’ll be able to visit all the cool spots on campus, including the MSU Dairy Store and the International Center, where you’ll find a food court and the MSU Bookstore.

ENJOY THE SMALL CLASS SIZESWe keep our classes small so you’ll get all the individual help you need. You’ll learn the latest trends and innovations, plus get motivated and return home ready to make your student media the best it has ever been!

STAYING IN THE DORM IS A BLAST You’ll live in Shaw Hall while attending the workshop, and you’ll be supervised by workshop personnel. For those wishing to room with a friend, include his or her name on the registration form. Special dietary or housing needs? Let us know ASAP.

REGISTRATION DEADLINE IS JULY 10*Cost for the workshop for everyone is only $385 if you pay in full by June 15, After that the cost is $410, which includes tuition, room, all meals, etc. If you’re from Michigan, the non-MIPA member fee is $450. Please note: All fees must be paid before the workshop begins.

GO TO THE WEB!After we receive your registration, we’ll send you an e-mail to let you know your class. A few weeks before the workshop, go to the website to download the registration packet, which includes registration instructions, maps and other important information. Please make sure to talk with your adviser about supplies before school is out. The supply list can be found at the MIPA website at www.mipamsu.org. Watch for it in early May. Before you leave school, grab copies of your newspaper and yearbook to bring along.

MSU IS EASY TO FINDMaps to MSU are online at www.msu.edu. Non-commuting students are not allowed to have cars on campus; anyone with a car may be sent home. You should be dropped off at the workshop on Sunday and picked up on Thursday at noon.

COST INCLUDES EVERYTHINGWe don’t think you’ll find a better workshop value in the Midwest. The registration fee includes three square meals on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and breakfast on Thursday; housing; tuition for the course and a T-shirt. Not sure if your school is a member of MIPA? Go to the MIPA website at www. mipamsu.org/membership or call us at (517) 353-6761.

Hi, Everyone!

School’s almost out for summer! Just think—June, July and August—home with your parents.

While a stay-cation is great, why not give the folks a little break and head to Michigan State University where the surf’s up on the Red Cedar River and high school journalists from all over the country are booking their J-cation.

Improve your journalism skills the best way ever—learning from the best instructors anywhere, living the college life on a Big 10 campus and wearing your flip flops! You heard it right. Your flip flops!

From Sunday, July 31, until Thursday, Aug. 4, we are going “Back to the Beach.”

Book your J-cation now and prepare for the biggest adventure of your summer. You don’t want to miss the fun—the Dairy Store ice cream, the chance to meet new friends—and most of all, the learning.

See you July 31. I’ll bet my flip flops are cooler than your flip flops.

Ciao!

DEAR STUDENTS AND PARENTS,

We know you will have a great experience at the workshop, but we do have some policies we need to enforce in order to make the week enjoyable and safe for everyone and to ensure the success of future workshops.

Therefore, please go over the following items together and sign below to indicate that you understand and agree to the items on this page. Please send this along with the registration form and the health form. We will need all three in order to process your application.

REFUNDS

• Students who are sent home from the workshop for disciplin-ary reasons will not receive a refund. Students who choose to leave the workshop early for any reason will not receive a refund.

PAYMENT

• Workshop fees must be paid in full before we allow students to check in on Sunday. If the school is paying for part or all of the tuition, it must be paid in full before we will allow a stu-dent to check in. Students—Please verify payment with your adviser and/or school office before coming to the workshop. We will not allow ANY student to check in with unpaid tuition for ANY reason. Students who owe a balance at registration must pay by cash, money order or cashier’s check. Sorry, we will not accept a personal check at registration.

• Students who register for the workshop after the July 10 dead-line MUST pay by money order, credit card or cashier’s check and pay a $30 late fee.

• Bounced checks will be assessed a $30 service fee and the student will be removed from registration until a credit card payment, money order or cashier’s check for the amount of the workshop plus the service fee has been received. If the original course the student signed up for has been filled when the replacement fees arrive, the student will need to make another selection.

CARS ON CAMPUS

• No students are to drive to the workshop or be in a car with-out permission of workshop staff during the workshop unless the student is designated as a commuter. Because no secure parking is available, students with a car on campus may be sent home and no refund will be given.

• If it is necessary to spend the evening away from the resi-dence hall, parents must write out a permission note, and it must be given to Mr. Kirk Weber, Workshop Student Director, or another Director. When students check out and return, they must notify the workshop office.

• If a student is commuting, there is a parking fee of $10 that must be paid with the registration fee. MSU or MIPA cannot be responsible for any damages to vehicle or for any tickets a student may receive because of wrongful parking.
