Exploring the intersection of media and technology
I spent some time voting on SXSW panel proposals. Here are some I hope you will check out and provide support by using the thumbs up, recommending with the heart and leaving a comment. It’s easy to set up a login to get in the system, and you can use your FB or Twitter login […]
One of the areas in which we have been focused in our program at Texas State is helping students prepare for emerging roles that have a strong emphasis on technology. I have had the pleasure of announcing many jobs that our graduates have secured, pioneering in this realm – carving out positions that involve tech […]
It is with welcome recurrence that I have the opportunity to brag about the successes of our graduates in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication at TXST. This recent round of jobs and promotions highlights some important trends. Jordan Viator Slabaugh (shown above speaking at SXSW in 2011) did both her master’s and undergraduate work […]
