Huliq.com: A Unique Opportunity for Student Journalists to Get Published

CCJ Staff, November 30, 2006

Huliq.com describes itself as an independent news organization whose mission is to present news stories submitted by student and citizen journalists.

The site works much like some message boards in that site visitors "vote up" and "vote down" the stories they find most interesting and well-written.

The site is a good opportunity for student journalists to get published and practice their reporting and writing skills for an audience.
