College students break big news stories
from Shop Talk · host Rich Egger
Student newspapers on two campuses are credited with being first to report significant stories in the past year. The Daily Northwestern at Northwestern University reported last month on hazing, sexual assault, and other problematic behavior involving the university’s football team. Head coach Pat Fitzgerald was fired, and some players have filed lawsuits while others have transferred to different institutions. And The Stanford Daily at Stanford University reported last fall that the school president’s research was under investigation for scientific misconduct. An independent review did clear Marc Tessier-Lavigne of research misconduct, but it found serious flaws in five scientific papers for which he was the principal author. He eventually resigned.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
