When Katy June-Friesen signed up for Mary Kay Blakely's advanced writing class at the Missouri School of Journalism, she had no idea that she would be producing a broadcast feature for KBIA, the University of Missouri's National Public Radio member station. Students in Blakely's and Berkley Hudson's advanced writing classes write and produce their own oral commentaries in addition to longer feature assignments for print publications. The students write NPR-style commentaries on different social issues or other topics of interest. The point is to tell a story that is compelling, interesting and entertaining. http://journalism.missouri.edu/ http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:50:00 -0600 Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:00:00 -0600 Divya Abhat recalls her first trip back home to London after this summer's train bombings. http://journalism.missouri.edu/features/kbia-documentaries.html Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:40:00 -0600 Rhitu Chatterjee recalls what she misses about her home in India. http://journalism.missouri.edu/features/kbia-documentaries.html Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:35:00 -0600 Genevieve Contey remembers the day her dad took on the backyard groundhog...and won. http://journalism.missouri.edu/features/kbia-documentaries.html Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:30:00 -0600 Callie Hodge tells us about the checks she gets in the mail...from her mother's new dog. http://journalism.missouri.edu/features/kbia-documentaries.html Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:25:00 -0600 Katy June-Friesen remembers her days in junior high school and wishes we'd all take religion a little less seriously. http://journalism.missouri.edu/features/kbia-documentaries.html Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:20:00 -0600 Anya Litvak is originally from Moldova...but only sometimes lets some people know that. http://journalism.missouri.edu/features/kbia-documentaries.html Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:15:00 -0600 Kate Moser has always had trouble getting her hair cut...until recently. http://journalism.missouri.edu/features/kbia-documentaries.html Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:10:00 -0600 Former teacher Dan Nejfelt thought he would never spank a child...until he met one particularly troublesome student. http://journalism.missouri.edu/features/kbia-documentaries.html Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:05:00 -0600 Alex Yalen reflects on why he always looks forward to coming home and playing his guitar. http://journalism.missouri.edu/features/kbia-documentaries.html Thursday, 01 June 2006 11:00:00 -0600
