So the Spring semester is upon us. And we are already in full-speed ahead mode: web redesigns, workshops, contests, new documentary projects here and abroad, amazing PhotoNights featuring the likes of Sam Abell and Brian Storm, faculty members winning big-time grants for their films (I’m looking at you Chad A. Stevens) and new curricula taking shape. (Note: curricula is apparently the plural of curriculum, who knew). In short, we’ve got a lot of work to do, but it’s going to be an amazing Spring here in Chapel Hill. Over the next week we’ll be touching on all of these things here at carolinaphotojournalism.org. But to kick things off, I thought I’d share a few selects from the advanced course of Fall 2009. Enjoy!
