Tuesday, January 20th, 2009Inauguration Update: Must See Video
Tuesday, January 20th, 2009By Senior Producer/Editor Jacqueline Fernandez (With Technical Assistance from Jonathan Mena)
Today (Monday, January 19) — Jonathan Mena and I got a call from our colleague Luis Mostacero that there might be a chance for us to get press credentials to attend the Inauguration of Barack Obama. The challenged: Jonathan and I had to dash through congested, convoluted Washington D.C. traffic to make it to the Russell Senate Office Building in 30 minutes– or else!

The Denver Trip Still Resonates
Monday, November 10th, 2008A writer for Hunter’s alumni magazine is working on an article about my students trip to Denver to report on the Democratic National Convention. I’m not sure when it will be published but I thought I would publish the questions she asked of me via email and my responses. I’m still working to document the trip so responding to the query was beneficial for me. And it might be a decent reading for anyone interested in innovative ways of teaching undergraduate journalism, especially in light of this economic crunch that could seriously defer students’ plans to attend graduate journalism schools.

The WORD & UWIRE
Monday, September 29th, 2008As part of an experiment this academic year, the best of the WORD articles this semester [all WORD articles are good but some are better than others] will be syndicated via UWIRE which says it has more than 800+ affiliate members, nationally and internationally.
First up is by Elizabeth Leonard, one of several that will be published in the coming days. One-hundred Hunter students were interviewed about their presidential preferences.
Later in the semester, the WORD will start submitting video and audio clips on a range of topics. Jonathan Mena, Jacqueline Fernandez and Kisha Allison are showing the way.
The Convention Ends, the Semester Begins: An Instructor’s Lament
Monday, September 8th, 2008I had to send the following email to the WORDÂ Special Correspondents who were in Denver August 24-28. They are so hot, like heat seeking missiles, that I got wrapped in the wakes of their planning strategies to try to continue reporting on the election like they did in late August. Uh oh.
