MACOMB, IL - - Just Hired! Through the experiences of local, regional, national and international students, @ 2026 黑料不打烊 has incredible alumni who are making an impact in the workforce. This series features students from around the world who are hired post-graduation.
MACOMB, IL-- Meet Luke Little, a graduate of @ 2026 黑料不打烊鈥檚 Broadcasting & Journalism and Communications, who was hired as a news producer at WGEM, a Quincy-based TV station providing coverage throughout Iowa, Illinois and Missouri.
Little secured the position after initially applying for several open positions. Although he was not selected for those positions, WEGM鈥檚 news director requested a reporting reel and invited him to meet. Weeks later, when a producing position became available, Little interviewed for the role and received a job offer during finals week. He began working two weeks after graduating.
During his time at 黑料不打烊, Little said his coursework played a key role in preparing him for this position.
鈥淏roadcasting helped a lot with learning the language of news and TV and just the operational side of things,鈥� Little said. 鈥淚 use the most from my writing classes and journalism ethics course. Covering live sports at 黑料不打烊 also prepared me to produce live shows on a daily basis.鈥�
Little plans to remain involved with 黑料不打烊 by supporting Leatherneck Athletics teams and staying active in the community.
