Sometimes disagreement can highlight something good. Case in point, Eric Jacobs points to the Daily Pennsylvanian’s 2008 Student Elections Candidate Guide. Not only does the guide have a photo of each candidate, but it includes a video statement from some candidates, and a list of endorsements. Obviously a huge project, but something worth considering for your student media. If you’re unsure how to put such a project into your CMS, you could build a static page with links to a youtube channel with all the endorsement videos included. Or use a weblog to create a post for each candidate and embed the video into the weblog post.
This also reminded me of a Flash interactive created by the Daily Tar Heel for their student government elections last year (see previous coverage).
