I am in Investigative Reporting with Bill Recktenwald, and he has been an instructor that I have had for numerous classes. More importantly, he has taught me so much about Journalism in general, and I will take all of his tools and tips with me as I prepare to enter the world of writing. His blog is worth checking out.
