Unusual style marks professor
By Heatherle Himes
OfOQOTI 0**y /
journalism Professor Ken Met
zler congratulated lus student
on her great report and handed
her five $1 hills ns a reward
Debbie t-fiir will sign a release
allowing Metzler to print her
interview with a Register Guard
reporter in the third edition of
Crvatnr Interviewing, a textbook,
Metzler wrote for the seminar
She told Metzler and her 11
classmates that she planned to
use the money to pay for her 8
yenr-old daughter’s school
lunches
Unusual ns Metzler s actions
may seem, they're typical for his
interviewing seminar
This is the same class where
students can earn an A grade for
a "magnificent Inilur- "
"I have a basic policy that
there is a learning experience in
failure." Metzler said "When
you’re trying to learn a body of
work like calculus, this
wouldn't work I don't know of
any other classes where it would
work except this class."
The policy evolved out of a
student's experience in the class
about 15 years ago A young
woman had planned to inter
view' a local artist, but instead
spent the interview avoiding his
amorous verbal advances.
The student ended the inter
view and went to Metzler's
office and told him that she had
not gathered enough biographi
cal information about the artist
to complete the assignment and
needed a deadline extension
On the verge of tears, she
explained the artist's behavior to
Metzler
In those days sexual harass
ment was not commonly dis

not realized what female

inar. The class focuses on Interviewing for an entire term.
tered He encouraged the stu
dent to lead o class discussion
about her experience.
Her failure taught her and the
rest of the class more than a suc
cess would have. Metzler said.
That incident became the basis
for the "magnificent failure pol
icy.”
"I think you can learn a lot
from failure," said Mark
Mazurkiewicz, a seminar stu
dent. "I think it's groat that then*
are professors that recognize
that in some cases failure con
teach you more than success
could "
Mazurkiewicz and graduate
student Michelle Nicolson agree
that the class and its policies
have helped them improve their
interviewing skills
Nicholson said that the class
has enabled a chance to trou
bleshoot for weaknesses in her
interviewing style.
"It's given me n chance to ana
lyze my own techniques, whnt
works for me and doesn't work
for me." she said.
The class is intended to help
students do just that, said
Arnold Ismach, dean of the
school of journalism and com
munications. It's the only class
offered at the school that focus
es for an entire term on inter
viewing.
"I think such a course would
1m* valuable to anybody in any of
the communications fields,"
said Ismach. "We get much of
the information we want by ask
ing questions of people."
I,air said she feels inspired by
the ( lass, and especially by her
small monetary reward.
"It makes the real world seem
not that far off," she said, "get
ting paid is something obtain
able.”
