Do you like working with people and presenting new and creative ideas? Do you appreciate the value of well-crafted words? Do you welcome the challenge of working with new computer and video technology? Then consider the Communication major at Penn State Erie.
This program prepares you for a career in corporate communications, journalism, public relations and advertising, broadcasting and video production, and a host of other business and professional fields.
You'll apply what you learn in the classroom as a writer, editor, or photographer for The Behrend Beacon, the college's weekly student newspaper. Or, learn videography, video editing, and composing visual presentations in one of our state-of-the-art digital editing suites.
Debate Watch is being hosted by the Communication program of Penn State Erie, The Behrend College. Students and interested community members will gather at 9:00 p.m. in Bruno's (second floor of Reed Union Building) to watch the presidential debates on Big-screen televisions and engage in brief discussion afterwards. The feedback from those discussions will be sent to the national Commission on Presidential Debates.
Debate Watch Dates: September 26, October 7, and October 15, 2008.
