BusinessWeek and Bloomberg reporters among Knight Fellows

Geri Smith of BusinessWeek and Janine Zacharia of Bloomberg News along with 10 other U.S. journalists have been awarded John S. Knight Fellowships to study at Stanford during the 2008-09 academic year.
During their stay at Stanford, the Knight Fellows will pursue independent courses of study and participate in special seminars. The 2008-09 program marks the 43rd year that Stanford has offered fellowships for professional journalists.
Smith plans to focus on immigration, trade integration and the quest for international competitiveness in the Americas. And Zacharia will tackle changing how rulers rule: what went wrong with the freedom agenda and lessons for the future.
