What's hot

I got the note below on a listserv for college media advisers. It shows there's no limit to how ambitious you guys can be with The Critic.
--------------------
Just wanted to share the joy of what we're doing here at UW.
We now have daily videocasts online. We've done this on a shoe-string budget that pays the salaries of a student Web developer, two broadcast students and a print photographer that has learned how to use video.
Our only capital investment was buying a student version of Final Cut Pro; as we found the sound quality of iMovie to be limiting. (You can see that with our earlier videocasts.)
We borrow the sound/video equipment from another department.
Our most popular videocast was Home Invasion -- where we got to see what it is like inside the Phi Pools frat house. This is the first in a series. Several frats are lining up to be next.
Feel free to check out what we're doing at www.thedaily.washington.edu or www.theuwdaily.com.
