Professional Web newsroom tour and talk at usatoday.com in Fairfax, Va., Wednesday, April 29: We'll talk with journalists there about storytelling, story presentation and reader interaction. You will be given assigned questions to answer about the visit; your typed responses will count as an in-class grade, and will be due at the start of our last class. If you'd like, we could pre-arrange for carpools.
We'll meet promptly at 1:45 in the lobby of the building; please be on time.
We'll end the session at 3:15 p.m., to allow driving time before your next class.
Newswoom contact: Joshua Hatch, a producer at the site. Address: 7950 Jones Branch Drive, McLean, Va., 22108. (It's really close to Tyson Galleria.)
Driving directions from google maps: Take I-495 W for about 18 miles; take exit 46A for Chain Bridge Road, 123/Tysons Corner/Vienna; take a quick right onto Tysons Blvd.; turn right at Westbranch Dr.; turn right onto Jones Branch Dr. Guard shack is on the right before the main building; check in with the guard, who will direct you to free parking.
I'll be leaving the Journalism Building at 12:45. Anyone who'd like a ride should meet me in Room 3117 at 12:40.
Best, Chris

This is Chris; I'm glad to drive. I can take 3. I'll be leaving at 12:45 to head over. Meet me in 3117 at 12:45 to head over with me! First 3 are in.
I'm willing to drive people - I have four spots. Anyone who's interested in coming with me should email me at efalaris@gmail.com and let me know where you're coming from since I have to go off campus to get my car.

I can meet at 12:45
I can drive four besides myself and I can leave at around 12:50. I'm coming from another class and my car will be parked in Lot 1 so it would be smarter to meet in front of the Art/Sociology building at that time. I will also be leaving USA Today at 3 or a few minutes before so anyone who has another class right after this one might want to ride with me. Either post after me or email me at courtney.pomeroy@yahoo.com if you want to.
This is Andrew, I'll meet Professor Harvey at 12:45 in room 3117.
This is Nada..I'll also meet Professor Harvey at 12:45 in room 3117
I'll meet Courtney at Art/Soc at 12:50 to ride with her.
I would like to drive with Courtney, in order to get back in time for my class. Thanks!
Hi, I have a car and I can take four people. But if we don't need the extra driver, my bumper might need to get fixed next week.
But my car is in the Mowatt Lane garage (by Van Munching).
OK--it looks like I've got 2 or 3 riders; Brittany, are you coming with me and Andrew and Nada? Let's meet between 12:40 and 12:45 in 3117 Journalism. Is everyone else set?
Best, Chris
Does anyone else have a spot open? The two people who were coming with me decided not to go and I really don't want to drive myself... Please let me know via e-mail... courtney.pomeroy@yahoo.com
