I was surprised how many schools wanted to hire a Ph.D. to teach students how to build Web pages. One smaller, state school, which will remain nameless, even asked me directly if I could teach flash and HTML.</p> <p>It made me wonder how much universities should focus on these skills. Like Jeremy, I think undergraduate journalism education in the Internet age should focus on the core storytelling skills that translate to any medium. It's important to know what technologies and design possibilities exist, but focuses on technology too much leaves journalism mired in the same quagmire it is now.</p> I just wanted to confirm what Jeremy is saying.

I learned a log that gives me hope I can still finish out my dream career in outdoor writing -- it just may have to be through different media than I figured. Thanks for a great presentation.

It's funny how it took MyMissourian's crash for us to realize how powerful free software like Wordpress is. It begs the question, why don't more news organizations farm their operations to other existing sites. Why not have Flickr handle your photos, for example? Maybe it's the topic for a new post!
