Tech openings at WSU

OSU CATS alumnus Michael Beam, who is on the faculty at Washington State University, tells me that WSU has a couple openings in digital media/social media this year. They're looking for candidates with evidence of a productive research agenda and the ability to teach digital courses at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. The college has undergraduate focus areas in advertising, PR, journalism, broadcast, and communication & society. It also has MA and PhD graduate programs in communication.

Reflections on life as an OSU grad student

Kristen Landerville, an assistant professor at U of Wyoming and a recent OSU graduate, has posted a brief essay reflecting on her experiences here. It's short and light-hearted, but still manages to present a compelling picture of the graduate school experience. Enjoy.
