Student journalists from MU to cover Olympics in China
Fifty student journalists from the University of Missouri-Columbia will go to China to cover the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.
MU last week entered into a partnership with the Olympic committee and Renmin University of China.
During the games, the students will intern with the Olympic News Service and be housed at the university.

Student Journalists Share Their Work in Second Life

Journalism students at the University of California at Berkeley will show off their reporting, filming, and writing on religion in the virtual world Second Life, beginning on Monday. In five revival-style tents on Nowhereville Island, people can view multimedia presentations on polygamy, Ave Maria College, the so-called lost boys of the Mormon faith, and other topics, says Kara Andrade, a Berkeley journalism student.
