Quick Hits

A few quick hits for today:

• Campus Politico interviews Keli Goff about her new book - Party Crashing: How the Hip Hop Generation Declared Political Independence. I ordered my copy earlier this week and am waiting for it to arrive.
• mtvU has announced that on April 8th, Nancy Pelosi will be the next politician to sit down with the student Editorial Board. Last month President Clinton was grilled by four students, all of whom did a good job at pressing the former president on the ups and downs of his presidency. Considering congress's low marks, it will be interesting to see if these young journalists let Speaker Pelosi off the hook because of Congress's recent work on student loans, or if they drill down on still-pressing topics like the environment, the war, the economy, and health care.
• Kristin Gorski has a very interesting post on the Huffington Post about how Sen. Obama's campaign has sparked the imagination of the graphic design community.
• CBS News has an interesting article about Obama's potential to be a map-changing candidate in November.
