Me Bragging About You!

The dean's office asked for a couple of sentences describing what, if anything, our classes did for the inauguration. I was proud to say this: For the inauguration, my beginning Reporting students took their notebooks and Flip video cameras and did stories on the inauguration, ranging from security snafus to what type of food people brought with them to the Mall to how an Ohio family experienced bunking in at a college dorm. One student got poignant quotes from an attendee from Kenya about what the Obama swearing in meant to his country. The students also contributed Twitter feeds to the NPR/CBS/AU inaugurationreport.com Twitter project and submitted video and photos to The Eagle. They will post their final stories and multimedia on their own blogs, which are linked on our class blog: www.mojo-a-gogo.blogspot.com.
--And, that's just the second week!
