Speed dating

Well, was this fun or what? Our assignment during the break: To meet someone at another table in this very crowded room, exchange business cards, and network — make a connection.

I met William H. Wilson, managing editor of the Elkhart (Ind.) Truth, which was kinda cool since I once worked at the South Bend Tribune. When I told Bill (we’re friends now!) that I taught cross-platform journalism at George Mason University, Bill told me he was looking for an online content editor. He’ll be sending me a job description, and I hope I can steer one of my former students looking for a job his way.

So, great exercise, Dale and Andrew!!!
