The best undergraduate journalism schools

Per this website:

"What to look for: Do the professors have professional journalism experience? Can students take classes in photojournalism, TV, audio and online media as well as reporting and writing? What opportunities do students have to practice their skills? Does the school operate a TV studio? Is there a daily student newspaper?

Ball State University
Programs in journalism graphics, magazine, news-editorial, photojournalism.

Indiana University - Bloomington
One journalism program, with advanced courses in newspaper, magazine, broadcast news, photojournalism, editing, and news analysis and opinion writing.

University of Florida
Programs in reporting, editing, magazine, online, photojournalism, broadcast news.

University of Maryland
Programs in broadcast, online, and print journalism.

University of Missouri
Programs in convergence journalism, magazine, newspaper, photojournalism, radio-television.

University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Programs in electronic communication, news-editorial, journalism, visual communication."

Personally I'm biased. I think the University of Missouri in Columbia is the best journalism school, but my cousin Anne went to J-school there.
