A new kind of school

By Geoff Dougherty | May 01, 7:34 PM

We've been working with the Society of Professional Journalists and DePaul's new journalism school on a nifty new program that debuts later this month.

It'll offer some great information to bloggers, citizen journos and others looking to learn about ethics, media law, and news technology.

Chicago will host the first of three Citzen Journalism Academy events on May 17 at DePaul's Lincoln Park campus. I'll be leading a reporting workshop, and folks from Columbia College and elsewhere will also share what they know.

The other two programs will be in Los Angeles and Greensboro, N.C., in June.

The registration deadline is coming right up, so check out the details and sign up if you're interested.
