Mizzou's Katherine Reed discusses the changes that are needed in journalism education, and the obstacles to those changes — especially faculty members whose expertise and teaching methods are more appropriate for the ink-on-paper past than the digital present and future: "Universities are being starved for cash, and endowments don’t necessarily come bearing gift tags for faculty training. So faculty teach what they know, and that might not be cutting edge."
