Trouble with Trends

I'm having a few issues with my trend story that I was hesitant to bring up because I was hoping everything would work out, but it's just not. I've got this great topics, all kinds of energy to write about it and tons of research to help me out. What am I missing? Sources!

I had a list of three sources I wanted to use from Purdue. One of them quit and can no longer be reached and one of them is incapable of returning emails, phone calls or being in his office. That leaves me with one - ONE - reliable source. And he doesn't even count because if he ignores my questions his dishes don't get washed. So now I'm going to have to brainstorm. I think, in addition to the people I am still trying to track down, I need to add a teacher (or two) who uses Purdue's podcasting services and a few students who do as well.

I am also going to lift a few quotes from other publications - with proper accreditation given, of course. I think this will help reinforce that podcasting is, indeed, a trend that is sweeping campuses across the nation.
