    Medill students, the Census and immigrant communities
    Now these guys get it! These kids delivered — for me — the journalism equivalent of a Reese’s Cup: two great tastes in one wonderful package.

    I don’t know how long I have argued that the immigrant communities are important elements of any community reporting.

    And how long have I argued that the Census Bureau is a wonderful treasure-trove of story ideas? A long long time!
