My Reporting Contemporary Issues class has begun blogging. They are covering Greeley's City Council. The meetings are the first and third Tuesdays of the month. So far students have only blogged on one meeting. Their second post is due by midnight tonight. Click on the link on the left to view the blogs.
I like the idea of blogging on deadline. It allows students to cover a meeting in a new way. We'll see how it goes.
Students in this class will also be publishing a Web site focused on how City Council elections will affect UNC students. Candidate profiles will begin running next Tuesday. I'll link to the site once the first story is published.

Great idea. I was shivering just thinking about having to go to these meetings plodding through snow! Jane Paudaux.
Is there really a nazi looking pudge brother who wears an immensely tiny shirt in your class? Bald? Oh wait, that was Mr. Clark’s cousin. A shame. Or is it and also was it? Anyhoo, simply bugging Jane as my coffee pot is growing weary with soot and cold as the day is long, meandering thoughts around the filter of those unable to understand why it is I write and why I say such things? The truth madam, corruption is slight but only in scope. It’s a jungle out there.
