One more time! A Parkie makes the NY Times Institute!

We're two for two! Erin Geismar, editor of the Ithacan, has just been informed that she has been selected to join a small group of "best and brightest" college journalists for a two-week institute sponsored by the New York Times in January.

The "New York Times Student Journalism Institute" offers student journalists an opportunity to work with prominent news professionals in a newsroom environment. All expenses for students are paid, including transportation, and students receive a stipend during the Institute.

And the good news -- for Erin, at least -- is that this year's January program will be offered in Miami!

Perhaps even better news? Last year, Parkie Nic Barajas attended the Institute. And the Times hired him when he graduated in May!
