Science Conference

The Council for the Advancement of Science Writing is offering scholarships for its conference in October:

New Horizons Fellowships

CASW offers Traveling Fellowships, of up to $1,200 each, to cover the costs of attending the New Horizons in Science briefing. The fellowships are intended primarily for U.S. journalists from publications and broadcast outlets that do not routinely cover major science meetings or employ a full-time science writer. CASW also assigns a veteran science writer to each fellow to serve as mentor and to help ease his/her way through the program. The application deadline is Aug. 15

Science Times

Nature magazine tears into The New York Times over this op-ed. Letter writers weren't quiet, either.

Journalism schools are ramping up environmental reporting, and, in general, science coverage, I hope. What is your school doing?
