proposal to host the 2011 ANS Student Conference. We truly believe that Georgia Tech is very well prepared to accommodate such a gathering, and it would be our pleasure to organize and execute this conference. Building on the proposal we submitted for consideration last year, we believe that we have strengthened areas that needed improvement and delivered a proposal that promises to offer one of the best ANS Student Conferences to date.

The station’s tradition for educating journalists continues with students including Maurico Bush, left, and David Earl. Photo at left courtesy of University Archives, C:0/3/8 Box 2. 2011; photo at right by Rachel Coward Mizzou was on the leading edge of journalism education in January 1954, when KOMU-TV officially hit the mid-Missouri airwaves. The only station in the region for its first few years, KOMU broadcast programs from four networks (ABC, CBS, NBC, DuMont) and produced original programs, says Rod Gelatt, professor emeritus of journalism. When Gelatt arrived in 1963 and took over as news director, several of KOMU’s programs were strictly educational. That legitimized the station’s mission early on because other broadcasters feared competition for advertising dollars, he says. For instance, the station aired Of Interest to Women, a homemaking show hosted by Esther Griswold, and Twilight of the Sioux, a show about Native Americans hosted by English Professor John Neihardt. But in news circles nationwide, KOMU was (and still is) best known for educating broadcast journalists using the Missouri Method. It’s a trial-by-fire approach that sends students into the community to do what professionals do — gather news and report it to the public every day on deadline.

  • CLEAN WATER HEROES Georgia Tech TANYARD CREEK Georgia Tech Campus Captures Stormwater to Conserve Water and Protect Urban Stream
    Georgia’s 2017 CLEAN WATER HEROES Georgia Tech TANYARD CREEK Georgia Tech Campus Captures Stormwater to Conserve Water and Protect Urban Stream INTRODUCTION: When Chattahoochee Riverkeeper was looking for a way to show a group of intown Atlanta residents how to use green infrastructure to manage stormwater at a proposed neighborhood park, they had to look no further than the campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology. Georgia Tech has been a leader in green TANYARD infrastructure since it built its first LEED certified building in 2003. Since then, CREEK the Institute has taken on the challenge of managing the rain that falls on the campus. Now that rain is collected and conserved, and the campus has become a veritable zoo of green infrastructure projects that save water and keep pollution out of local streams. The campus’ green solutions to stormwater runoff are so numerous, faculty and students have even developed a smartphone app that allows anyone to take a virtual tour of Tech’s innovative approaches to managing stormwater. THE WATER BODY: In 1888, when Georgia Tech opened its doors, Tanyard Creek flowed through what was then undeveloped property west of Georgia Tech’s iconic Tech Tower building. When thunderstorms rattled over Tech students in those days, the rain hit the ground and seeped slowly into it and eventually to Tanyard Creek. Over the course of the next century as the Institute and Atlanta grew in unison, Tanyard was slowly piped and buried. Today, almost 70 percent of the land surrounding Tanyard Creek is covered in concrete, asphalt and buildings.
