MEDIA ARTS DEPARTMENT DEBUTS NEW BLOG

WELCOME TO THE MEDIA ARTS & JOURNALISM NEWS BLOG! This site has been created for all faculty and staff in the Media Arts and Journalism programs at Tulane University School of Continuing Studies.

Since most of you are adjunct faculty members, I decided it would be a good idea for you to have one central place to come where you can find out what's new in your department and in the Tulane community.

This blog will serve two purposes: First, it will keep you informed about the basics -- academic calendars, syllabus requirements, important deadlines and dates, class schedules, changes or updates to University rules, requirements, etc.. Second, the blog will be used to keep you informed of news in your industries. If you are a Public Relations instructor, for example, and I find blogs or web sites that may help you stay current in the field, I will post those under the "Sites You Should Know About" section in the right hand column. Also at right, you will see a section titled "Where the Pros Go," which is an evolving list of professional organizations for individuals in our line of work.

I hope you will visit this blog at least once a week to stay current on Tulane happenings and updates. If you have any suggestions for content that would make this blog more useful, please drop me a line anytime.

Over time, I hope this blog becomes a community where we can all interact and keep each other informed. Thanks for stopping by, and please come by often!

  2. Paul,

    Thanks for your efforts setting up this blog, and for your intrepid experiments with the new journalism. There's nothing like blogging to teach us how to blog!
