After diving head on into the world of RSS, I’ve managed to subscribed to many more blogs than I could imagine ever reading via the traditional web browsing method. When I say “many”, I’m talking over 25 different sites and that’s not including the ones I normally check up on that are by friends.
Anyway, recently I added waxy.org to my list after noticing it referenced quite frequently from Layer 8 which is another blog I have been keeping up with. Coincidentally, one of the recent postings on waxy.org has to do with Oxnard and Ventura College. According to a recent post (actually the second of two posts on the topic), the journalism programs at both college have been closed.
There’s a link in that post to an LA Times article as well as to a picture of students at Oxnard College during a silent protest. It’s been nearly five years since I’ve been back to “the nard”, but it seems to keep popping up in the most unexpected places.
