Communication, English and Film Programs

Where Stories Meet Audiences

Start on air, in print or behind the camera your first semester.

Join a media team right away: work with award-winning radio, TV, and media production teams from your first semester, building a professional portfolio while you complete your degree.
Customize your path: our interdisciplinary courses span journalism, public relations, radio, television broadcasting, creative writing, and film production so you can shape your own route.
Graduate with a résumé that stands out: real shows, published work, and professional internships already on your portfolio.
Small classes, faculty who know your name: hands-on coaching, creative collaboration, and direct career guidance from mentors who invest in you.

Publish a book with your name on it: put poetry and prose into print through Pinchpenny Press, the college’s student publishing house before you graduate.
Find your audience on campus: share work at public readings, contribute to literary magazines like Broadside, Squirrel Digest and Red Cents.
English or writing, tailored to you: English majors dig into literature from past to present while building the skills grad schools and employers want; writing majors get workshop-style classes small enough that a professor knows your voice and pushes it.
Learn from working writers: every year the S.A. Yoder Memorial Lecture brings a distinguished poet, novelist or essayist to campus so you learn from them, not just read them.

The Globe (WGCS 91.1), Globe TV: develop real leadership on air at the station named the Best College Radio Station in the Nation by the Intercollegiate Broadcasting System. The Globe also releases a show every week.
Storytelling across every platform: broadcasting and film production students command the studios, while communication majors orchestrate strategic media campaigns and direct live community broadcasts.
Professional internships: land placements with regional corporate partners, advertising agencies, and local nonprofits.

I’m so grateful for the Film Production department in Goshen College, mainly because it allowed me to have real industry experience, in addition to being trusted with leadership roles in both FiveCore Media, and 91.1 The Globe. I’m a well-rounded professional today because of the Communication Department.
