Murray Campbell: why I got into journalism

Murray Campbell: why I got into journalism

by on January 23, 2013 in Profiles

I have been asked countless times over the years why I got into journalism. The question was sometimes posed by someone who wondered why a sensible guy like me would go into a business with badly paid jobs filled by scoundrels and malcontents. Often, however, it was asked by a fresh-faced journalism student who was eager to bring a touch of idealism to a world sorely in need of it.

Alumnus Profile: Brian Gable, editorial cartoonist for the Globe and Mail

by on April 16, 2012 in Profiles

Editorial cartoonist Brian Gable says his start with the “left wing, anti-establishment” Sheaf was “somewhat different” than his current employer – the Globe and Mail. Gable has had an illustrious 25-year career with the Globe and Mail – winning National Newspaper Awards in 1986, 1995, 2001, and 2005 – and the Sheaf was the inspiration for his career.

Gable will be the keynote speaker at the Sheaf’s centennial celebration on Nov. 3. Attendees can expect a lively discussion of Sheaf history with editorial cartoons for illustrations, and perhaps even some live demonstrations of his own cartooning skills.

Share your Sheaf stories: sordid, inspiring, hilarious, embarrassing, or all of the above… Anything goes!

by on March 15, 2012 in Discussion

Only at the Sheaf could I write a parody sex advice column every week, interview indie music heroes, and run for student government in order to write an article about the process, and then win. And I don’t even want to pursue journalism!

My time at the Sheaf proved to be a valuable experience chalk full of opportunity and amazing good times. I’m positive those of you who have worked or volunteered for the Sheaf have your own unique stories and experiences too.

We would love to hear about them!
