NOW VOYAGERS

13 students set out to Discover the News in the fall of 2008 and are finding a real city with real people just down the hill from their sheltered world at Syracuse University. They research how systems are set up from police and fire departments to local governments, courts, school districts, elections and more and how the people involved in those systems deal with reporters. They go to where those people work and find out from them about what they do and what they think reporters could stand to learn. Then those student reporters go out and cover real events and report on them. Their stories are what you'll find on this page.


Kelly Sullan, Vanessa Longshaw, Naresh Rammohan, Venise
Toussaint, Kevin Ware, Michael Lefko, Sierra Rodriguez-Jiminez,
Shannon Lins, Jennifer Brennan, Zack Waldman, Marlei
Martinez, Danielle Waugh, Paige Westin

Most often they travel by bus. It turns out you can learn a few things along the way. Perhaps before the semester is over they'll write some of those stories too
