Learning that couldn't have taken place in the classroom Past Review
By Zapata (Writing for TV and Film, Emerson College) for
Emerson College: Los Angeles - Emerson College in Los Angeles
I learned an enormous amount about the entertainment industry an education that couldn't have taken place in Boston. I also made many terrific contacts. In addition to my internship I had 3 classes so I could graduate on time. It was hard but doable. I feel I might have gotten more from the program with less class work however.
