The UAE Students blog features video, news and commentary from journalism students in the Middle East. It began at the American University of Sharjah in 2006. In 2007 it was nominated for a Reuters Student Journalism award in the Student Team of the Year category. It includes articles about potentially sensitive issues like Islam and Sex Education.
Famous quotes containing the word students:
“I know that I will always be expected to have extra insight into black texts—especially texts by black women. A working-class Jewish woman from Brooklyn could become an expert on Shakespeare or Baudelaire, my students seemed to believe, if she mastered the language, the texts, and the critical literature. But they would not grant that a middle-class white man could ever be a trusted authority on Toni Morrison.”
