	In case you are underestimating the role of an internship for your career development, columnist Dave Barry offers this advice: Do you have any advice for someone interested in journalism (such as college courses to take, things to study)? Read a lot and write a lot. Above all, get practical work experience at real newspapers; this is MUCH more important than academic courses. What courses would you recommend as being the most beneficial for one interested in journalism?  English and history. Would you recommend graduate school?  No. Real-world experience is WAY better. Would you recommend internships? If so, what kind?  Yes; at newspapers that let interns report and write stories that actually get printed. Please describe an average entry-level position for a journalist.  It'd be at a small- to medium-sized newspaper, probably as a general-assignment reporter, covering meetings, fires, police news, etc. Also writing obits.
