Short explanation of the story and how it developed: Lauren Ella Burke and Sharon Curtis completed this multimedia enterprise story for their capstone project in May/June 2024.They devised the story idea, a look into the aftermath of a "tent city" protest encampment after it was dispersed. They focused very much on the human face of the story but also delved into its political and sociological issues. The student journalists explored the story through text, photos, video, graphics and a SoundCloud podcast that looked at the issue of homelessness from many perspectives. It was a substantial amount of work for two student journalists, performed with heart, and the end product shows it. |

Resources of the newsroom (money and time) available to complete the story: The student journalists took about six weeks to produce the story as part of a Multiplatform Journalism Project. |
