We have two digital events coming up at Columbia J-school I wanted to let you know about. More events info via @columbiajourn on Twitter: http://twitter.com/columbiajourn
One is the FREE annual Hearst Digital Media Lecture on Thursday night 6-9 pm, with TWO receptions! – with Amanda Cox, award-winning Graphics Editor at The New York Times, along with the awarding of the the Innovator Award by Mark Hansen, Director of the David and Helen Gurley Brown Institute for Media Innovation (Mark is new to the J-school and absolutely awesome – worth going just to see him in action!). Many of you know I ran this program for 10 years, before I moved from the J-school to the Provost's Office – hope you will try to attend and listen to Amanda. Lauren Mack <lem2111@columbia.edu> can answer any questions you might have. Details below.
The second event is my next social media workshop, on May 16 – run by the Continuing Education department and coordinated by Tatiana Rivera <tgr2114@columbia.edu>.
@SREE'S SOCIAL MEDIA WORKSHOP – NYC IN-PERSON & ONLINE FROM ANYWHERE: Social Media One-night Stand – advanced social media workshop, Thursday, May 16, 2013 (includes two weeks of online coaching, taught w/ @wordwhacker & @travelogged). Details: http://bit.ly/cjsm2013b #cjsm – INTERMEDIATE and ADVANCED LEVELS.
