What should I be telling students?

What should journalism professors tell students about the future? According to answers from a variety of journalism professors across the country, the answer varies from "find a new profession" to be versatile and take a long view of journalism.
I come down in the latter camp. While the newspaper industry is foundering, media, in my view, has never had better opportunities for excellent work. I cannot imagine how much better my work would have been if I'd had the tools available now, even when I was an editor at the Journal Sentinel, which, in my view, is just now beginning to scratch the surface of melding print and the Internet.
