On Thursday and Friday, February 18 and 19, I accompanied five students on a reporting trip to the DeSoto Times Tribune<\/em> in Hernando, Miss.\u00a0 This was the Meek School\u2019s third field trip to a newspaper this semester.\u00a0 In January we had traveled to Vicksburg, where our students produced multiple platform pieces for the Vicksburg<\/em> Post.<\/em> Two weeks later we took another group of students to the Madison County Times<\/em>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

After our assignment dinner with the editor and publisher of the Hernando newspaper on Thursday night, I had returned to Oxford for a board meeting of the Kosovo Institute for Journalsm ((Misspelled journalism)) and Communication.\u00a0 Six students: Jason Darby, Jackie Garrett, Alex McDaniel, Emily Roland, Brittany Stack and Jasmine Wright formed a reporting team that wrote 12 stories for the newspaper.\u00a0 Alex, the editor of the Daily Mississippian<\/em>, coordinated the reporting and writing.\u00a0 This is the task of a professor.\u00a0 However, because of Alex\u2019s experience, we asked her to do it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Students finished their stories before 9 am.\u00a0 I drove to the Southaven Hampton Inn to edit them.\u00a0 However, the computer at the business center did not work, and I could not get e-mail to my laptop.\u00a0 So I would have to wait until I could access a computer.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Because of the weather delays one often encounters while traveling through Chicago’s O\u2019Hare, I decided to take the first flight out of Memphis.\u00a0 I left the hotel at 4:30 for a 6 a.m. flight.\u00a0\u00a0 I arrived at the Red Carpet Club room before 8:30. \u00a0The flight to Dubai, via Washington Dulles, did not leave until after 6 pm.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

After more than 10 hours at O\u2019Hare, I boarded United 976.\u00a0 The flight arrived on time on Sunday night at Dubai International Airport, but it was after midnight before we arrived at the Radisson Hotel in Sharjah.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
