 * **IainRobertson_**If this was the theme it might be interesting to have a live blog ( Cover it Live). Here you could have 'reporters in the field (workshops), interactive polls, audio/video interviews, etc. The blog could be projected to various parts of the college. Ideally you would give folks the chance to provide input by means of chat. Celebrations, breaking news, the word from the street could all be scripted. Ideally you would want a group of folks to act as reporters.
