Hello Summer B MMC2604ers!
Hi there. Glad you could make it. My name is Meredith, and I will be the leader of this fancy parade.
Welcome to our blog. It’s a great place to hang out. There’s info about class, our schedule, readings, and there are TONS of opportunities to include YOUR input – because really, that’s what will make this class go around.
Every week, you will see new posts on this homepage. It might be a post about a news story, or just a simple question needing an answer. Please comment. If you have something to add, or a thought or three, go ahead and throw it up there. If you don’t, go ahead and read other people’s thoughts.
Also, if you have something YOU want to share, simply go to the “Journo This” section of the blog and make your post. (Don’t forget to include a link to what you are talking about in the body of your post).
Let’s kick off this semester awesomely and rock it out. : )
OH – and please, if you don’t do anything: DO THIS: READ THE NEWS. EVERY DAY. If you aren’t used to reading the news, try this: visit a local newspaper site, or pick up a hard copy (like The Alligator or the Gainesville Sun), then go to a national news Web site (CNN, The New York Times, Fox News, whatever your poison), then check out Google News. It combines news from all sorts of media outlets. Hey, maybe even follow NPR on Twitter.
See you soon!
