On Monday, CMU’s Mass Communications department will host the 23rd annual Media Day. The event is open to students and will feature a number of workshops, speakers and photography contest.
Registration for both Media day and the photography contest will go 7:30-8:30 a.m., and events will directly follow. Media day will offer a variety of sessions with a range of concentrations such as journalism, photography, broadcast, graphics, advertising, audio production, and web blog creation.
CMU will also welcome a faculty member from the Annenberg School of Journalism at the University of Southern California, Judy Muller. Muller has not only been an Emmy Award-winning television correspondent, National Public Radio commentator and published author, but she has also worked for CBS and ABC, covering both the Rodney King trial and the O.J. Simpson trial. Muller will teach students “how to stand out from the masses in the field of mass communication.”
The day will be wrapped up with an awards ceremony and end around 4 p.m.
