Zoo Journal: Untitled Final Feature
http://kcarsok.blogspot.com/2007/05/untitled-final-feature.html
Wednesday, May 23, 2007. Endless rows of corn stretch as far as the eye can see out the window of Amtrak’s 351 Pere Marquette train riding from Detroit to Chicago. The bland, dusty yellow nothingness goes on for hundreds of miles, punctuated by signs warning of deadly pesticide applications. Worse yet is the industrialized meat market. Epidemics spread quickly among animals when they are confined to the inhumanely crowded living quarters that are customary to US livestock and poultry production. ...In Ka...

Lauren's Journalism Jottings: April 2007
http://journalistlauren.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
A forum for furthering my growth as a journalist. Wednesday, April 25, 2007. This profile hits it. We see a public figure in private- tooling around his home, ferociously reading paperbacks, struggling with his genius. I appreciate the reportage because Gorney clearly spent lots of time with Geisel or at least asked the right questions. I found myself asking 'how did she find that out? And yet also being surprised that I would ask that, because the piece flowed so seamlessly. Thursday, April 19, 2007.

Caitlin's Journalism Blogs: Sorry everyone... can I try again?
http://ziggimawara.blogspot.com/2007/05/sorry-everyone-can-i-try-again.html
Tuesday, May 8, 2007. Sorry everyone. can I try again? So, after reading some comments, I realize I completely missed the ball this the last article- it wasn’t a feature. I was looking for “messy” and just got crap. It was scattered and needed more focus. I apologize to everyone who did read it. I’m posting a new article. I’m sorry to make people read twice. This one isn’t so messy, but is a feature on a new band called Panic! Again, sorry for the last piece! But in case you still want to take a look:.

Zoo Journal: Eating Well and Keeping it Local
http://kcarsok.blogspot.com/2007/05/eating-well-and-keeping-it-local.html
Tuesday, May 1, 2007. Eating Well and Keeping it Local. A colorful sign boasting groceries and fresh produce invites pedestrians of the Kalamazoo Mall inside, where they might find that this is no average grocery store. Petite yellow signs cry out, Local! 8220;I eat nasty food sometimes too,” Finch admits, “but when I’m eating well I feel better.” Does she feel like she is giving up a lot to eat this way? 8220;Yes- the potential for thousands of dollars of medical bills.”. This goes for produce as well&#...

Zoo Journal: Keeping it Local

Monday, May 21, 2007. A cheerleader for Farms to K, the People’s Food Co-Op downtown Kalamazoo supports local farmers with zestful passion.

Thursday, April 26, 2007. The readings on Virginia Tech are pretty scary. It's insane to think that someone could just walk into a classroom and start shooting. This is particularly creepy since an incident of much smaller proportion happened on our campus a few years ago, and on top of it all the guy at KVCC. Really went and stirred things up. The profile on Cho. Is especially haunting because it seems that people did almost everything in their power to prevent this, other than having Cho. Possible....

One answer to that question exists in the awarding of honors to students for exemplary performance on their comprehensive exam. Doing well on the exam shows a particular student’s aptitude for their field, while giving the school another opportunity to venerate the hard work of an undergraduate.

The Hot Sauce: May 2007
http://sauceishot.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 30, 2007. I really liked Charlie's pick for this week with the article "Elite Colleges Open New Door to Low-Income Youths" by Sara Rimer in. The New York Times. I think that this piece is a great example of something short, sweet, and interesting. The piece then flashes back quickly, which does a good job of providing personal background information. The flashback is inserted at just the right moment to allow the reader to continue building Jack's character. Wednesday, May 23, 2007. In abo...

Charlie's Class Blog: Profile Reaction
http://chmack34.blogspot.com/2007/05/profile-reaction.html
Wednesday, May 2, 2007. I didn't really like how my profile turned out. I am definitly not a good enough writer to get across the character using the show don't tell. I felt I wasn't able to adequately build the character of my subject without coming right out and saying. I attempted to use as many descriptions and situations to illustrate the points I was trying to make, but they never seemed to pan out exactly how I wanted. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
