Chris Carroll (Vanderbilt Student Media) and Ralph Braseth (Ole Miss Student Media) organized a last-minute session on the last day of the conference to discuss new media’s impact on college media. The session was called “Reinventing College Media.”

I just finished uploading the mp3s from that original session to Archive.org for free hosting. Hard to believe that was almost 18 months ago.

Listen to them here: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3.

The links have also been updated on the original Reinventing College Media weblog.

We hope to do this by a number of efforts, including:

National hands-on training workshops and conferences.

Regional hands-on training workshops.

Open-Source technology development and testing.

Open-source research about college media and technology.

Showcasing examples of innovative student work on the web site.

Track emerging trends in news media that will impact college media organizations.

Partnering with other organizations to explore ways to improve the transition to new media skills for student journalists.

We will have many more details about the CICM in the coming weeks, so stay tuned. See also So what are we doing here?

For that reason, we’ve set up a “Speaker’s Bureau” of folks who are willing to travel and help you where needed. Each of these individuals has different strengths they can bring to a workshop session or boot-camp for your students and fellow advisers.

If you are interested in arranging for one of these folks to come speak on your campus, please contact them directly to make arrangements. While we are providing this service, we do expect that any such arrangements would include funds for travel and lodging for the speaker.

See our Google Calendar for upcoming events and workshop dates that are already reserved.
