Bob Stepno hits a few topics in this post, but the most interesting to me is the question of how to teach Hunter S. Thompson in j-school.

If you're in student media and you haven't checked out CoPress yet, now's the time: "Since the beginning, demand for our services has skyrocketed past our initial estimates. By the end of this month, we’ll have helped move more than 25 student newspapers to WordPress – a highly-flexible, and open-source CMS. To meet the almost-overwhelming demand – we actually needed a waitlist for part of the summer – we have a new approach that will allow us to scale while providing the same high level of support." [Disclosure: I'm on the board.]

"The next phase of the program is to pair students with reporters from The Local and from The New York Times, so they can work together to produce at least one story this summer. We’re anticipating a range of topics, from youth summer employment to teen violence."

Hunter Walker is reporting for Gawker on his Columbia J-School orientation. Kind of like an embedded blogger in the belly of the beast: "Lemann also discussed our job prospects. Although he brought up the possibility that we may find work for a news organization he encouraged us to be open to careers as possibly starving internet entrepreneurs saying: "its a really interesting time to be in on the beginnings of the revolution... it's a great time to put aside thoughts of worldly things and do something really creative if you have the nerve." I agree with Lemann that this transitional period could lead to great opportunities, but I know firsthand that you need capital along with cojones to start your own business ventures."
