Wall Street Journal (WSJ) Assignments

You are expected to keep up with current events and regular reading of the Wall Street Journal (WSJ). You will need knowledge of current events and trends for the exams as well as the WSJ assignments.

The WSJ can be accessed in a number of ways. It is available in paper copy at the library, on the library database, and through an electronic subscription. Others read it at work.

The best method is an electronic subscription because it has many features including headlines, full articles, videos and searching.
