Loyola's Apprentice House Gives Students Publishing Experience

My feeds turned up this interesting little article at Examiner.com about Apprentice House, a student-run book publisher at Loyola College. (By the way, this is the Loyola in Maryland, not the one in Chicago.)

What a fantastic experience for these students! As part of their classes, they learn about acquiring, editing, designing, and marketing books. Very cool.

Thanks for spreading the word about Apprentice House, where we are literally the future of publishing...today! You can imagine the challenge of teaching the publishing business to 18-22 year olds, but I think the on-going vitality of the industry starts at programs like ours.
