Between Terms
This summer is really going fast! If you’ve been reading my tech blog, you already know about the Online Journalism class I took online. I not only feel like I learned a great deal, I met a bunch of great people and even got an A for my time and trouble. Several of my classmates have joined an email list I set up to help us keep in touch, and about half the people from the class will be taking an on-campus seminar next month, so we’ll be meeting face-to-face then. This outcome seems very appropriate for a class that spent a lot of time discussion community-building.
That brings us to the “travel” part of this travel blog. While we have just parked the RV this summer, next month we’ll take it out and drive to Columbia, Missouri, home of the University of Missouri School of Journalism for a week.
After that, we’ll return to St. Joseph for about a month full of appointments and school work, then close up the house for the winter and head south. School starts again for me on the 24th, and I’m taking three full classes in addition to the weekend seminar, so it will be a busy time. But then, we seem to keep busy no matter what.
