Students enjoy caricatures, obstacle course and live music at end of journalism conference

JACCpalooza tops off journalism conference with live music and games

The Journalism Association of Community Colleges held its bi-annual conference for students interested in Journalism.

This year the organizers decided to change things up with the first annual JACCpalooza after the awards dinner.

The event was intended to help students relax after the long weekend. The event included inflatable races, jousting and a boxing ring. Students could also have their caricatures drawn by an artist or have their futures told by a tarot card reader.

The JACC holds a state conference and a regional conference every year where students compete in workshop and contests ranging from photography, newswriting and multi-media.
