The CU News Corps got its start in summer 2012, originally using the name CU Journalism News Service.

A handful of students worked on news of the summer鈥檚 wildfires and the Aurora theater shootings in July. Here are some highlights of their work:

Channel 11 in Colorado Springs did a聽聽using our map with details of the properties destroyed in the Waldo Canyon Fire.

KUNC used a聽聽of the Flagstaff Fire in 羞羞视频.

Students created a聽聽with frequently updated details about the summer鈥檚 fires. One student did a聽聽on the impact the fires had on fireworks. And another student covered an聽聽on Waldo Canyon.

The day of the Aurora shootings, students contributed to the聽,听聽and we believe the聽聽used the information we emailed them. A student also聽聽an expert about gun control laws.

Meanwhile, student Steven Kasica sent daily 鈥減ostcards鈥 from the London Olympics, which were used by聽聽and the聽.
