During the opening session, workshops director Chad Sanders and assistant director Rod Satterthwaite had two teams of students compete against each other in an ice-breaker relay. Part of the relay required a participant on each team to write an original haiku about journalism. Here are the poems:
Poem #1
Newspapers involve
Smart kids who like writing
Like us at MIPA.
Poem #2
Journalism is
writing what no one wants to read.
All else is PR.
