Event: Education for Photojournalism Educators

We just got word of an upcoming Northern Short Course in Photojournalism from the National Press Photographers Association, including a program geared specifically at photojournalism educators: "From Newsroom to Classroom."

Of particular note is the workshop "Talking About Trauma to our Students," run by Dart Center Ochberg Fellows Jim MacMillan and Mike Walter. They'll be covering topics including:

"the ethical treatment of victims and survivors of traumatic events, the impact of trauma coverage on news consumers and communities, challenges to complete and accurate reporting under stress, and the psychological hazards of traumatic events for the news professionals who cover them."

The program is March 19-21 in McLean, VA, and you can find more details
