Emma Murphy, a communication studies major in the Central College Class of 2025, had a feature article published in StreetWise magazine during an internship. Murphy, from Greeley, Colorado, completed the internship as part of the Chicago Semester, an off-campus program, during Spring 2023. She wrote the cover story in the April 19-25, 2023, issue focused on the newly released movie, “Chevalier.”
“Emma’s goal to be a journalist is fast becoming a reality in part because of her internship with StreetWise in Chicago,” says Shelley-Jean Bradfield, associate professor of communication studies. “Her feature article ‘Chevalier’ tells the story of composer Joseph Bologne, who was a contemporary of Mozart but didn’t receive the same recognition during his lifetime. This is the type of historical journalism that Emma enjoys. She looks forward to writing more pieces like this. I look forward to seeing Emma’s name in print many more times in the future!”
