Some recent achievements of our graduates.

• Murdoch's Louise Perry who has been advised that she is one of only two cadet journalists to be employed by "The Australian" this year. Louise did an undergrad degree at Murdoch majoring in philosophy, politics and communications (minor in journalism) and won a VC's commendation for her final year of studies in 2000. In 2001, she completed the graduate diploma in journalism, along the way winning several journalism prizes including three national student journalism awards. For the past year, she has also done a great job tutoring for us in undergraduate journalism courses, while completing internships at "The West Australian" and "The Australian" and then working casually for "The Australian" and Community News. In January she was one of two Murdoch students to participate in the inaugural in-country Indonesia journalism practicum organised by ACICIS. Louise was placed with Associated Press and excelled in the role -- even making a cameo appearance around the world on CNN!
  
  
• Geet Frank, a Mass Communications student, spent her summer break with the Asian Wall Street Journal doing the H325 Professional Placement unit. She has recently accepted a full-time position with the paper as a news assistant in Hong Kong, whilst continuing her studies in Mass Communication via correspondence.
