Although she won\u2019t be writing for the Times, the program represents an extraordinary opportunity.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m grateful for this because practicing skills in journalism will help me learn to be curious and how to ask questions,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guerrero attended a student conference through the National Association of Hispanic Journalists in April, later attending the association\u2019s full conference in July thanks to the Arcus Center for Social Justice Leadership Fund at K. When the association posted about the Times\u2019 mentorship program on LinkedIn, she felt earning a spot might be difficult with her limited experience\u2014she only had two writing classes and no previous freelance work. Yet the post suggested the Times was looking for students just like her.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that thought and some encouragement from Professor of English Marin Heinritz, she decided to apply. Today, Guerrero is paired with Motoko Rich, the Times\u2019 Rome bureau chief. She will receive guidance from Times journalists and attend training sessions with her cohort for the next three years.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guerrero\u2014who enjoys studying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/academic\/programs\/english\/\">English<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/academic\/programs\/political-science\/\">political science<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/academic\/programs\/spanish-language-and-literature\/\">Spanish<\/a>\u2014began her journalism journey in high school outside Chicago. She pursued independent writing and joined her school newspaper during the pandemic to stay connected with classmates. Although K does not offer a journalism major, she has discovered that courses and opportunities at K are helping her prepare to become an independent journalist.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDr. Heinritz was a philosophy major, and she told me that you don\u2019t need to major in English or journalism to become a journalism professional,\u201d Guerrero said. \u201cYou just have to be curious. You just have to push yourself to learn. Motoko Rich, my mentor, told me that it\u2019s important to learn a little bit about a lot of things. That\u2019s why I think K, with our open curriculum, is so good for me. I can take a little bit of everything while also learning how to be good at one niche thing.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking the introduction to journalism course with Heinritz further piqued her interest in the profession. One assignment for the class pushed her to interview strangers around campus and she learned to write stories on tight deadlines.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt was nerve-wracking, but it also made me excited,\u201d she said. \u201cIt was a way to orient myself as a first-year student and Dr. Heinritz encouraged me to keep going, even when it was difficult.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, Guerrero has leaned into every opportunity to develop her craft as she writes for K\u2019s student newspaper, the Index, contributing campus stories, and freelances for NowKalamazoo, a nonprofit newsroom known for in-depth local reporting. Her <a href=\"https:\/\/nowkalamazoo.org\/2025\/09\/checking-in-with-clarks-special-kitchen\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">first published story<\/a> profiled a Nigerian food truck in downtown Kalamazoo.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt was intimidating, writing for a broader audience I didn\u2019t know,\u201d she said. \u201cBut I realized I don\u2019t have to wait until after graduation to do the real work. I can do it now.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those experiences complement her national opportunities, giving her both mentorship at the highest level and practical reporting experience in her community. Guerrero is especially drawn to solutions journalism, which highlights how communities address challenges. She also feels a strong responsibility to represent voices at K that might otherwise go unheard.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe have a lot of students of color here, and their stories need to be shared,\u201d she said. \u201cI want to help build a bigger, more diverse staff at the Index.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Guerrero\u2019s long-term vision is to mentor younger student writers, expand the paper\u2019s reach and ensure that it reflects the full K community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alumni of the Times Corps often go on to fellowships, freelance opportunities and newsroom careers. Guerrero hopes to one day pitch stories to the Times, perhaps even for its Modern Love section, which she has followed since high school. For now, she balances classes, reporting and her growing network of mentors. She admits she still gets nervous before interviews, but she sees that as a good thing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cJournalists should be a little nervous,\u201d she said. \u201cIt means the questions we\u2019re asking matter.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As she looks ahead to study abroad, internships and more bylines, Guerrero remains motivated by the same curiosity that brought her to the field in the first place.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe future of journalism belongs to people who ask good questions and believe in the freedom of the press,\u201d she said. \u201cThat\u2019s the kind of journalist I want to be.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"584\" height=\"800\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-584x800.jpg\" alt=\"New York Times Corps Member Sarah Guerrero Gorostieta stands next to a fountain that has NAHJ projected onto it \" class=\"wp-image-25550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-584x800.jpg 584w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-300x411.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-109x150.jpg 109w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-1120x1536.jpg 1120w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-1494x2048.jpg 1494w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-scaled.jpg 1867w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Sarah Guerrero Gorostieta \u201928 attended a student conference through the National Association of Hispanic Journalists before the association\u2019s full conference thanks to the Arcus Center for Social Justice Leadership Fund.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"746\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-2-600x746.jpg\" alt=\"New York Times Corps member Sarah Guerrero Gorostieta holds her NAHJ conference name tag\" class=\"wp-image-25551\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-2-600x746.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-2-300x373.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-2-121x150.jpg 121w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-2-1235x1536.jpg 1235w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-2-1647x2048.jpg 1647w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Guerrero applied for the New York Times Corps mentorship after attending two journalism conferences. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"786\" src=\"http:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-3-600x786.jpg\" alt=\"Portrait of New York Times Corps member Sarah Guerrero\" class=\"wp-image-25552\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-3-600x786.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-3-300x393.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-3-115x150.jpg 115w, https:\/\/www.kzoo.edu\/news\/files\/2025\/09\/Sarah-Guerrero-3.jpg 1172w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Guerrero writes for K\u2019s student newspaper, the Index, while freelancing for NowKalamazoo, a local nonprofit newsroom.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-2 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sarah Guerrero Gorostieta \u201928 was selected for the New York Times Corps, a program for college students who could benefit from mentorship and career guidance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":147,"featured_media":25557,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,231],"tags":[93,54,116,38],"post_formats":[],"class_list":["post-25549","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-students","tag-career-development","tag-english","tag-journalism","tag-students"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.7 -
