Students and advisers attending the CICM new media conference held in Nashville, March 29 – 31, received classroom training from some of the best new media producers around including Jack Lail, Lee Clontz, Angela Grant and Jason Levine. The conference’s main focus was hands-on training and that’s what the participants got three hours at a time. #

The conference keynote speaker was Jennifer Carroll, formerly director of news development at Gannett and now vice president/new media content in the newspaper division. #

After her speech on Friday, the CICM video crew (Bryan, Chris and Ralph) got a chance to sit down and interview Jennifer Carroll. Bryan Murley asked her about Gannett’s future plans. According to Carroll, the transformation from newsroom to Information Center will require a radical change in mindset. #
