Advisory Board

The Department of Communication maintains an active advisory board consisting of alumni, external industry professionals, and a current student who serves as an ex-officio member of the committee.

The board will meet annually to discuss departmental and institutional business and will work in subcommittee outside of the general meeting to execute objectives essential to the department’s operation, in addition to serving in consultation during ad hoc periods of support.

The advisory board has been organized to support the department’s observance of ACEJMC accreditation standards.

The charge of the committee is to:

• Provide counsel on current industry practice that informs curriculum and student media operations.
• To foster a stronger connection with our alumni.
• To better serve the evolving needs of today’s college student.
• To support internship development, student networking, and professional development.
• To identify and support fundraising and resource acquisition that enhances program quality for students.
