In the spring semester of 2013, New Jersey City University journalism students spent 15 weeks researching and writing “long form” stories for a course called Journalism Capstone. Each of the stories deals in some way with an urban theme — primarily Jersey City, but also Newark and New York City.
Gothictimes.net is proud to present their work.
