Clearly the gallery story was not my best nor my favorite. I really struggled trying to find something to cover on Thursday. I went online for about two hours trying to find stuff but nothing really intrigued me. I was going to cover the Economic and Entrepreneurial Smart Fair, but when I called the South Side Innovation Center, where the fair was supposed to take place, they told me The Post-Standard website I had checked was wrong, and the fair would not be held till October 13th.
When I finally chose the story, I emailed Professor Nicholson, who was clearly not thrilled with my choice, but gave me the okay as long as I didn't right a PR story. I wound up doing the gallery story, and it did, in fact, become a PR story, until I changed the focus of it to the Connective Corridor. Now I'm a little nervous about writing the other anchor/actuality because I have to choose a different bite, and I don't know if I have any other good quotes related to the Connective Corridor aspect of the story.
Another problem I had was transportation. I don't have a car on campus, and the only friends of mine who do, live on South campus, which is difficult to work out. This was the one aspect in which the gallery story worked out well because it's a stop on the Warehouse route and was easy to get to.
