Apply! Every year @lenagroeger and I each teach a class, and getting to spend time with the Data Institute students is always one of the most inspiring and rewarding things I get to do.
The Data Institute began because @sisiwei & @lenagroeger saw an equity gap in training for data journalism. The intensive, free workshop has helped nearly 100 journalists since 2016, and this year’s program is July 8-19 in DC. Apply by April 25: cjddatainstitute.org

Anyway always act as if you are being recorded. Never be afraid to ask pointed questions and insist on being told the truth but stay calm and stay respectful. Always write everything as if it’s going to be end up in discovery. Always talk about a story with an open mind.
