Innovation in College Media

UWire just announced their UWire 100 - a list of 100 college journalists nominated by peers and professors and chosen by the staff of UWire. Check out the entire list here.

Some of the names are familiar to ICM readers, as they've been readers, commenters and had their work showcased on the site: Sean Blanda, Kyle Hansen, Greg Linch, Chelsea Otakan, Whitney Rhodes, David Studinski, Megan Taylor.

I haven't had time to read through all the listed journalists yet. I'm sure there are others who are doing exciting things with new media and online journalism. Perhaps in coming days I'll have more time to do so. Still, it's good to see web folks getting their due in a list like this.

When the UWire 100 nominations were launched, I thought about each one of these folks who deserved nomination for their new media work. Congrats to them all, and to their peers in the UWire 100.
