Whether you are an enterprising journalist, suspicious partner or nosy neighbor, you’ll love this introduction to the many tools used by investigative reporters. Willy Stern, ’83, a veteran investigative journalist, will show you that no matter what your lawyer, teacher or mother told you, no document is off limits, and no secret secure from a journalist who knows how to dig up the dirt–and all in an ethical fashion. We’ll use case studies, movies, and scavenger hunts on campus.
