Well done to all our Glasgow Caledonian University MA Multimedia Journalism students who’ve just finished their assessed newsweek - a busy day for news in Scotland but their front page looked great (as did the one they had to ditch this morning!)

Oh, there she is… 👀 What a nice post from Glasgow Caledonian University Alumni. Sometimes I feel pure jammy working at BBC Scotland News. It’s an absolute privilege getting to speak to - and work with - so many inspiring people. ❤️ Cally played a big part in getting in the door.
