1. Masscom and Journalism are two different division within the same department.
2. If you are a journalism's student, then I think you can take masscom classes, but not the other way around.
3. Most of the 1st yr classes are 1 yr courses, therefore it makes impossible for you to take any of them in the winter term.
4. Journalsim is NOT that difficult yet requires tons of writing and excellent "lying" skills.
