Mining the Census Bureau

I'm getting a person from the Census Bureau to come to my feature writing class to show my students how to mine the Bureau's databases.

In the mean time, here is a link to the Bureau's Newsroom section: http://www.census.gov/pubinfo/www/news/index.html

Go to the Tip Sheets and Facts for Features sections for some really great material that could help your students get interesting items for their stories.
