Forte Difficulty writing journalistically

I have had a difficult time switching my writing style from academic style writing to journalistic writing. I feel I have had so much difficulty this semester because I have been taught to write academically my entire life. I also feel as though my attitude is also a contributing factor. I do not understand why advertising is in the Gaylord college. I feel as though advertising should be in the Price business college. I believe my journalistic writing will improve throughout the semester, and I hope I will not forget how to write academically.
