Bonjour, friends!
In the coming days, we will use this space to chronicle our journeys through Paris. I'm so honored to be traveling alongside Candace Nelson. Let me introduce her to you.
Although she'd never tell you, she's one of the most talented students ever to walk through Martin Hall. This summer alone, she'll act as both editor-in-chief for the West Virginia University student paper, the Daily Athenaeum -- as well as participate in a summer internship at USA Today.
For this ambitious drive and promising talent, Candace was selected as the 2010 Kearns Fellow. (We had several other wonderful applicants, I should note!). Candace and I will spend time shadowing reporters at the Associated Press, meeting with officials from a Paris-based journalism school and presenting at the European Journalism Training Academy's Annual General Meeting, this year sponsored at UNESCO. There, we'll share how the P.I. Reed School of Journalism's innovative curriculum is forever shaping the lives of our students as future professional communicators.
So we do hope you'll return to this space to learn more about our journeys through France. I'm sure we'll have plenty of stories along the way.
Au revoir for now, Jan
