The Right to be Forgotten: Forget About It |
|
The internet makes connecting with each other convenient -- and permanent. Our online postings help us celebrate the good times, but they also create a record of every mistake, action, and unkind word. Should there be a way to erase this history? Do Americans have a Right to be Forgotten? Join honors student Eva Newland as she shares her research on the Right to be Forgotten and why such a concept is likely incompatible with the First Amendment. The talk also will be streamed on YouTube.
Part of the First Amendment Series, Greenlee School of Journalism and Communication.
Tuesday, Nov. 30, 1:30-2:30 p.m. in 172 Hamilton Hall.
Public welcome. Refreshments provided.

Calling all students interested in politics or advertising or public relations or strategy! Sign up for the 2022 Washington Media Scholars Case Competition.

The 2021 team of Colton Boyd and Lydia Wede won the national championship, and the 2020 team of Kylie Kost and Avery Grundy were first runners-up. Both teams participated virtually due to COVID-19. We’re expecting the finals to return to DC in 2022 for a week or networking and the competition..

BREAKING NEWS: Greenlee students can take JL MC 201 Reporting & Writing sooner |
|
Advertising, Journalism & Mass Communication, and Public Relations majors can now enroll in the required JL MC 201: Reporting & Writing for the Mass Media course before completing ENGL 250. The ENGL 250 pre-requisite has been waived for Spring 2022, leaving the only pre-requisite of concurrent or past enrollment in the one-credit JL MC 110 Orientation course.
The change allows Greenlee students to jump ahead in their coursework. JL MC 201 is the required gateway course for all three of the Greenlee majors. Students must earn a C+ or better in JL MC 201 to enroll in many upper-level courses.
Seats are open in several sections of JL MC 201. Students can enroll via Access+.

Internship spotlight: Molly Blanco |
The importance of being a local news reporter
"My internship experience offered incredible hands-on experience in the news industry, especially because I was able to report about such a wide variety of topics. I gained new skills and improved existing ones while producing valuable work to display in my portfolio. The internship was incredibly rewarding and valuable, especially since it was my first time working in person with other journalists. The experience of interviewing a source in person or collaborating with colleagues was taken away by the pandemic, but I finally got the opportunity to experience journalism in person this summer."
