J-901 is open to the public and meets each Friday at noon throughout the semester.  This colloquium series is designed to provide new graduate students with an introduction to the field of mass communication, and to expose students to the research interests of the faculty in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication.  Speakers will address important theoretical, epistemological, and/or professional issues that they work with on a regular basis.

Attendance at each session is required for students taking J-901 for credit.  We will pass a sign-up sheet around at the beginning of each session in order to confirm attendance.  Those students who miss more than two sessions will not receive J-901 credit, regardless of the reasons for the absences.  Attendance at the sessions is the only requirement for J-901 credit and, therefore, the attendance rule will be strictly enforced.  Students must be on time and remain for the duration of the seminar in order to get credit for attendance.  All sessions are scheduled for the Nafziger Room.
