Comm 240 & Comm 243A

Why, you ask, am I mentioning those two classes out of the four I am taking this quarter? Simple: They are the most time intensive/preperatory/fun classes I will be taking. Sure, Comm Theory and Intercultural Comm (Comm 306 and Comm 304 respectively) are interesting in their own right, but Writing for the Media (240) and Comm Practicum: Journalism/Photojournalism (243A) will be related to my future field. In WM I am learning all about how to write in newspaper style (I might give pointers on this blog if I get the time) and in CP:J/PJ I will actually be writing for the school paper. Neat, huh? These will not be easy courses, but I will try my best and learn as much as I can. Coincidentally, I have the same professor (Prof. Jim Smart) for both, and thus I have him once a day, every day, five days a week.
I promised two quotes this time, so here they are:
"I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand." - Confucius
"Don't join the book burners. Don't think you're going to conceal faults by concealing evidence that they ever existed. Don't be afraid to go in your library and read every book..." - Dwight D. Eisenhower
I hope you all are doing well. Be well and peace be with you.
