@glmaranto (Gina) Thanks! I’ll be sure to check that out.

@Travis: I can’t speak for other projects, but here’s one example:

Beckman is the executive producer of the webcasting team for the Special Olympics World Games in February. He’s taking 30 students from UM (out of the 100/200+ students from across the world covering) to Idaho and we’ll have all expenses (minus food, perhaps) covered.

Obviously, that’s not abroad — but it’s just to give you an idea.

“Require people to go abroad” – with full funding from the program, I’d hope. Otherwise, is journalism education only for the well-off now?

Nice summation of Rich’s key points, Greg. Your tweets re: education are interesting, too, and echo a lot of what people like John Seely Brown and Paul Duguid have said about the current state of education and organizational information. Check out, for instance, this piece on situated cognition.
