Jeff Jarvis ( Blog: Buzzmachine) wurde zum director of the new-media program and associate professor an der new Graduate School of Journalism at the City University of New York ernannt. Herzliche Gratulation!!

Mr. Jarvis, 51, has been developing the new-media curriculum for CUNY's journalism program since last year. As part of the core curriculum, all students will be required to take at least one new-media class exploring digital journalism. Mr. Jarvis said that the media could achieve greater transparency by using blogs, podcasts and online video. "I want students to explore the relationship of the media with the public," he said.

Hier sein persönlicher Blogeintrag dazu. Wo er unter anderem neben seinen Beweggründen auf die Seiten der neuen Schule: Graduate School of Journalism at the City University of New York, hinweist.

One more thing: Here’s fair warning that I’ll be coming after many of you to come speak with our students about how you view news in media new and old, and also will be asking you to interact with students via webcasts and your blogs, turning you all into journalism professors with me: The beginnings of the school’s web site are here. And if you’re interested in applying, email admissions@journalism.cuny.edu
