Rules for the bloggers!

Welcome, potential MNN College Correspondent bloggers. Here are the details on how to enter the 2009 edition of our contest.

MNN college bloggers and videographers are vital to our operation and will have a hand in everything we do. They work (virtually) alongside our reporters as they write and break stories, help our editors keep a finger on the pulse of the environmental day, and produce all kinds of digital media from YouTube clips to mash-up photographs. In addition, our bloggers will have their own channel at MNN ... allowing you to report and analyze the top environmental stories in your area.

This experience can be great for journalism, environmental studies and active students who want a résumé-building experience that might lead to great jobs in new and old media alike.

To apply, write a great blog entry that shows off your insights and reporting on environmental issues. It might be a story happening on your campus, a personal insight, an interview with a green authority in your area ... or any environmental story you think our readers will learn from.

Once you've written your entry, you have a few ways to send it our way:

• post the URL of your blog in the commenting section below.
• or e-mail us the URL at contact@mnn.com.
• or attach your entry and mail to contact@mnn.com.

Once we've received the entry, we'll e-mail you a quick form to fill out that tells us a bit more about you. So please be sure to include an e-mail address in your posting.

Thanks and we look forward to hearing more from you!
