SPOTLIGHT
On March 8, students from Clinton and Norman High Schools visited Gaylord College of Journalism and Mass Communication as part of the "What is Home? Digital Storytelling Project." The project, generously funded by the Kirkpatrick Foundation, is a collaborative effort between the Institute for the Study of Human Flourishing, Gaylord, and the two high schools. The project seeks to enhance students' digital storytelling skills while cultivating the virtues of creativity, curiosity, open-mindedness, and perseverance. Students visiting Gaylord listened to presentations by Dean Ed Kelley, Dr. Nancy Snow, and Mike Boettcher. They were given a tour of Gaylord and were encouraged to consider careers in journalism and mass communication at OU. For more information on this project, please go to: WHAT IS HOME?
