Expected Completion: June, 1998
School of Journalism and Mass
Communication
Concentration: Advertising
Minor: Public Policy
My coursework is complete and comps passed. I have carefully designed
my major to augment my practical experience in advertising. Coursework
focused in the areas of history, theory and law. I have studied with
Dr.
Tom Bowers, Associate Dean of the UNC School of Journalism and Mass
Communications, noted First Amendment scholar Dr.
Ruth Walden and advertising research and media management consultant
Dr.
Mary Alice Shaver. My minor has focused on public policy in area
of advertising regulation. I have been lucky enough to study under two
of the best-known experts in public policy: Mr. Deil Wright of UNC-Chapel
Hill and Dr. Mark Nadel of the U.S. General Accounting Office and Johns
Hopkins University. In addition, I have taken two courses from Mr.
John Sweeney, a noted master teacher. Both courses provided me the
opportunity to watch Mr. Sweeney's in-class methods, techniques that
have earned him several teaching awards and academic recognition.
