The Beats Go On

I'm building this year's Advanced Reporting class around campus beats (our campus having a population slightly larger than Wazoo, Alaska, if you dislike pictures lacking a scale model). Here's the beat list from which the kids must draw.

Possible Beats F2008/Robertson

New faculty

Teaching quality

Adjacent neighborhoods

Campus construction

Wars in Iraq & Afghanistan

Overcrowding

Majority/minority issues

K-Hall

Jesuits

Student government

Cost of college

War on science

Freshmen

Campus unions

Politics

Campus safety

USF and San Francisco

Idea for beat stories: Post on your blog and invite comment of those you use as sources or otherwise feature.
