Congrats to education journalism star and all-around smartypants Joshua Benton of the Dallas Morning News (not nearly as angelic as he appears here) for having been named just one of 30 folks to get a Nieman Fellowship to go
party learn stuff at Harvard next year. (See
here for the announcement). I don't really believe in these residential sabbaticals, but would go if I weren't too chicken too apply and had better clips. In any case, Cambridge will never be the same. Congrats and condolences to Benton and the rest of the education team in Dallas. I guess the New York Times will just have to wait another year to get him.
