2015 Single-Topic News or Feature for Broadcast Finalist: Dan Carsen

As the number of Latinos in the American South grows, the question of how best to educate “language-minority” students is being answered with a novel school model – bilingual education.

Comments from the Judges:

“This is terrific reporting, comprehensive, often counter-intuitive, and presented by a host who is knowledgeable and personable. His conversational tone makes him trustworthy…or makes me inclined to trust him. It’s a good use of radio with a wide range of voices, including a number of experts who speak a language we can understand.”
