This is Echo, an audio series put together by the Mānoa Mirror. In this series we highlight the experiences of student journalists to remember, inspire, and most importantly, learn from. In this episode, we highlight Alyssa Salcedo, a senior Journalism student with a minor in Political Science here at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa.
She is currently interning with Honolulu Civil Beat as a Sunshine Ideas Intern. A while ago, Salcedo published her first article on how important media literacy is, especially at the high school level. Listen to Echo and learn more about Salcedo’s journey, media literacy, and how important keeping local journalists in Hawaiʻi is.
