Cereal & Critiques |
Late Night Zanies
Come gather children and you shall hear of the midnight ride of Michael Koretsky (Florida Atlantic University) and a wacky band of cigar chomping, cereal munching insomniacs at the DC Convention gathered for a late, late night round of critiques, cereal, poker and comaraderie. Great fun at the 2007 DC Convention. This link carries you to a slide show of the event. |

High school outreach can be boon for your media program
By Nils Rosdahl
Nondaily Newspaper Committee Chair
One of the most effective ways to recruit high school students to your school’s journalism program and newspaper staff is to make them (and the public) aware that it exists and what it offers.
A free journalism workshop can be a major help. Here is how we do it at North Idaho College, a community college in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. We serve a large geographical area as the only college in the Panhandle of Idaho. Our college also attracts students from Western Montana, Eastern Washington and Southern Idaho.
Be aware of the journalism professional organizations in your area and have them be aware of you and your program by being your active in them. For us, these are the Idaho Press Club (IPC) and the Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ), both of which have local chapters. Use them to help organize the workshops. The local chapter of the Idaho Press Club has informal monthly breakfast meetings at a restaurant across the street from our campus. Employees of the two daily papers that serve our area and public relations employees from area businesses, organizations, broadcast media and our college also are invited through an e-mail listserv.

Hearing set in Virginia's alcohol ad ban case
By Roger Soenksen
Media Law Committee Chair
A federal judge in late March provided the student media of the commonwealth of Virginia with a major commercial speech victory. U.S. Magistrate Judge M. Hannah Lauck of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia issued a summary judgment ruling that the Virginia Alcohol Beverage Control rules 2 VAC-5-20-40 A and B(3) are unconstitutional and issued an injunction against enforcing them.
A hearing on the issue of injunctive relief has been scheduled for June 10 in Richmond.

College Media Review: Coping with Change |
|
Change is the only constant
FROM THE CURRENT ISSUE OF COLLEGE MEDIA REVIEW: How can campus newspapers change their frequency of publication or downsize their format and never miss a beat?
These questions are addressed by veteran advisers Dan Williams and Kelley Callaway.
Also in College Media Review: research articles by Lillian Lodge Kopenhaver and Ron Spielberger on a topic near and dear to all -- the payroll. Dan Reimold ponders the assertion that ink stains are so last century.
