“The good news is you guys will be in on the ground floor of the next revolution”—San Jose State associate professor of journalism and mass communications.

“I don’t even know what I am going to do” —San Jose State journalism lecturer on his future as a journalist

“This could be the apocalypse for newspapers“—San Jose State journalism lecturer

“This would be the saddest meeting you ever saw”—San Jose State journalism lecturer after a class exercise talked about top newspaper executives meeting in New York City

“As long as you learn to write, you’ll always be able to find a job“ —San Jose State journalism lecturer

This would be the saddest meeting you ever saw,”—San Jose State journalism lecturer after a class exercise talked about top newspaper executives meeting in New York City
