Greetings from Beijing!  You may have noticed that several of the recent posts have come from Suzy Smith or me.  It’s true.  But it’s not because the students are lazy!  They have been really, really busy gathering stories and presenting them.

Monday, we met with Indiana Lt. Gov. Becky Skillman.  She’s in Beijing on a trade mission right now.  And our students got to sit down and chat with her.  What a great experience for them.  They all filled various roles with the interview and story development.  It was a tight deadline and they did not disappoint!

Their video aired on Indiana TV stations and their audio aired on radio stations back home!

How great is that? 

Dominic, Sarah, Kevin, Jeff and Jack all deserve a huge round of applause for their great work!

More to come!  And yes, I’m sure they’ll be blogging again.
