Journal #12 – Workshop Grp 4

A few comments stuck out from this class, one being from Kristen while we discussed Cole’s piece on accessibility in the quad. She brought up an interesting question about the probability of making the quad buildings accessible, and also what that cost might look like for the school. Incorporating this information may help shape Cole’s piece further into the finer details of what goes into installing elevators. Professor Miller added on to this thought by commenting on the laws that may be in place for the institution to need such accessibility. Interviewing someone like an accessibility officer or any staff member who may have information about this matter would add to the piece nicely and remove part of the bias from the journalist. 

In Caitlin’s piece, Finn made a comment about attributing the data and perhaps adding some information on how those numbers were calculated. This comment felt useful for the feature, as a reader may be wondering where these figures came from and what goes into their calculations. It is a matter of credibility and additional information on the research that went into this feature.
