Love public media in CNY but not sure what to do? Call and email members of Congress and tell them to REJECT the rescission memo and PROTECT funding for WAER Syracuse Public Media and public stations nationwide. Visit WAER.org for more information. #ProtectMyPublicMedia

Thank you for having me, and showing me all Syracuse has to offer! Made the sleet worth it ❤️

And thank you to the @pulitzercenter.bsky.social for connecting us!
Thank you @halleparker.bsky.social for sharing your journalism journey with @newhousesu.bsky.social students last week! Halle talked to students in news literacy, reporting and podcasting classes about how journalists can make complex, seemingly “un-sexy” stories understandable.

What a rewarding weekend with our @newhousemnd.bsky.social undergrads in NYC! Our fabulous @newhousesu.bsky.social alumni and media partners were open and honest about what it takes to work in media and live in the city after graduation. Thank you to those who hosted us and networked with students!

PR🤝Journalism. Lucky to have colleagues like @laurenbavis.bsky.social! We had 50 PR and journalism students take part in a media relations workshop last Friday. They gained respect for each discipline and learned ways to support one another! #BothSidesOfThePodium

We had such a great turnout for what was hopefully the first Both Sides of the Podium interactive news conference workshop! Dozens of @newhousesu.bsky.social students left with practical tips to hold and cover media briefings. Thanks to my amazing collaborator, @erikajschneider.bsky.social!

I’m so proud of my reporting students, who are leading the front page of @newshouse.bsky.social’s Off Campus section with their stories from this semester. Check out their full stories:

I made it three (3) weeks with my professional bag before switching to a backpack.

I might look like a dweeb, but I’m an ergonomic dweeb.

I just looked out the window and said, out loud, “Wow, that grass needs mowed.”

… I have managed to keep “to be” in my vocabulary for 11 years.

I leave Indiana for TWO WEEKS

All the new students are taking pictures on campus, but they actually let anyone do it.
August 27, 2023 at 2:17 PM
I’m sure I’ll be jaded by this time next year, but I’m just so enamored with the back to campus experience right now.

They still wear lanyards! There’s a poster sale on campus!

My favorite thing about Syracuse so far is that reusable bags are not just encouraged — they are mandatory.

Indiana would NEVER

I just need someone to tell me if the aughts and teens fashion trend videos mean we’re poking fun or circling back.

Am I donating the superfluous skinny scarves or packing them

These are faces of bliss that should be faces of “I revenge threw up because you evicted me from the bedroom for biting at 3 a.m.”

Is TSA on Bluesky and can they confirm if this is acceptable for carry-on

After spending a year editing, I forgot what a joy interviewing and reporting can be.

Writing remains horrifying why do we do this to ourselves. I made this two years ago and I stand by it.

Do you ever wake up unable to breathe and you worry that the power is out again in oppressive heat or that the air quality concerns have resumed — but then it’s just that both your cats are asleep on top of you?
