Anne and Dr. Richard Lee, lecturer and professor, respectively, in the Jandoli School, took part in a panel session at the Mid-Atlantic Popular & American Culture Association Conference on Nov. 10. 

In their presentation, “How We Keep Our Hyperlocal Site Current While Across the Ocean 3,500 Miles Away,” the Lees described the challenges of keeping TAPinto Greater Olean up to date over the summer while they are out of the country working in the Francis E. Kelley Oxford Program. Anne is associate director of the program, and Richard teaches one of its courses.

The challenge of keeping the content on TAPinto Greater Olean timely during the summer is even greater because the students who staff the news site during the academic year are on break.

The Lees’ presentation was part of the News Gathering and Business Considerations panel in the Journalism and News Media area of the conference. More details on their presentation are posted on the TAPinto Greater Olean website.
