A new Georgetown seminar will investigate the murder of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter who was beheaded in Pakistan in 2002. Called the Pearl Project, it will be available to graduate students in Georgetown’s journalism program, as well as undergrad English majors in the college.
It’s an interesting idea for a class, and if it succeeds in helping Pearl’s family find answers it’s an even better idea. Maybe it’ll be as compelling in the unsolved true crime genre as the unexpectedly excellent Zodiac. But don’t we already know what happened?
