介绍
COVID Between the Coasts
In Fall 2020, WNIN, UE and ¿Qué Pasa, Midwest? collaborated on a seven-month research and reporting project to find stories of the Coronavirus pandemic that weren't being told in seven Midwestern states.
Here is one of those stories, by student reporters Maddie Jesop and Ben Godden, taking part in a communication class led by Dr. 塔玛拉年轻. The WNIN/UE collaboration, called COVID Between the Coasts, has already reached thousands of listeners.
Students flourish under personal attention and instruction from faculty members – not teaching assistants – who have extensive practical experience in their fields. The Department offers a program that touches upon a broad range of interests, from advertising and PR to journalism, and includes specialties of sports comm and health comm for those interested.
