Celebrating
Information and Communication |
As the college prepares
for its annual I-Comm Week, the eighth edition, on
Oct. 8-11, we hope you’ll mark your calendars
and drop in to hear some of our sessions. The presentations
cover all the disciplines of both our schools with
an array of professionals, alumni, faculty and students
participating. You’ll find a calendar of events
here.
I-Comm Week — it’s “I” for
information and “Comm” for communications — always
seems to arrive quickly and surprise us, even though
co-chairs Lisa Sisk and Dr. Kendra Albright have been
working for months to assemble the program. But it
also surprises us in other ways. Our students enjoy
learning from the professionals. Our alumni and visitors
love to see what we’re doing in the college.
And our guest presenters always are pleased to share
their time and expertise with us. Each year, we’re
surprised — and delighted — by their growing
enthusiam.
Check out the full schedule below. And please make
a point to share in the I-Comm Week experience with
us.
