What better day to showcase the 2nd group of students to join Carleton's hugely successful Certificate in Journalism in Indigenous Communities, led by @duncanmccue. Students do most of their work remotely, from community, but did gather on Manitoulin Island for an initial session

In our meeting during my hiring process in 2003, Katherine encouraged me to turn my interest in the role of media during the Rwanda Genocide into a major project. With her support, the Rwanda Initiative was created, a five-year program to foster journalism education in Rwanda.
Honoured to attend today's emotional memorial service for Katherine Graham, the legendary public policy scholar and former Dean of the Faculty of Public Affairs at Carleton. She hired me in 2003. One friend called her "a mentor, a steady presence and a cheerleader, all at once."

An emotional and poignant farewell today for legendary Canadian journalist Hugh Winsor. Hugh's celebration of life was replete with references to his most notable traits - his kindness, curiosity, generosity, tenacity - and his love of words, sailing, family and friends. RIP Hugh
