It's Fall Semester and We're Back

Welcome to Fall Semester 2009! The new freshmen will be the graduating class of 2013. And we have 15 new freshmen in Mass Comm this year. I am teaching Mass Media Survey this semester, so I'm meeting all of them. And if you read my status updates on Facebook, you'll know that I'm trying to scare them, just a little, in the beginning. Just trying to make sure they do their homework. Please send me your news updates and photos to share with everyone on this blog. I also have plans to post the photos on the Facebook Mass Comm Alumni page.

In the meantime, here is a bit of news about the faculty. Dr. Blakeslee has relocated to West Point, New York, where her husband is the new head of the Ear/Nose/Throat department at the hospital there. Dr. Moss spent a good chunk of the summer conducting a debate camp for high school students here in the Swanson Center. Dr. Van Cantfort is busy busy busy teaching his classes and managing all the responsibilities as Mass Comm department chair. Professor Arbitter's twin boys are now 17-months old.

Hope to hear from all of you soon!
