Some
of you may be aware that the WVU Board of Governors voted to approve recommendations
made by the Office of the Provost related to the Academic Transformation
process earlier
today. The Department of Communication Studies is saddened by the results
of this process that will negatively impact academic options available to WVU
students as well as the lives and livelihoods of our faculty.
The West Virginia University (WVU) Department of
Communication Studies is recruiting up to TWO additional students to start the
PhD program with fully funded assistantships in August 2023. Under the
leadership of our new director of graduate studies (Dr. Dan Totzkay), we are
seeking to expand our incoming class with highly qualified individuals
interested in an accelerated three-year PhD program with impressive teaching,
research, and community outreach opportunities.
Congratulations to Communication Studies majors Gianna Loretta, Marleah Knights, and Trevor Swiger, all of who were recognized for their accomplishments by the university.
The festival was such a colossal failure that it ultimately led to two juicy Netflix and Hulu documentaries that detailed the behind-the scenes scheme. Viewers ate it up.
ECA is 29 March through 2 April, and members of the WVU Department of Communication
Studies will be out in numbers. Attached is a word document with every WVU presentation
at ECA this year, as well as a .pdf file of the entire ECA convention so you can
find WVU presenters.
During the 2023-24 academic year, six Honors College Faculty Fellows
will help WVU students grow their knowledge in areas of climate change
and the environment, communication, youth development and collective
violence.
