Communications department offers TV, radio class

Chadron State College is offering a new course in the Communication Department this fall. The course is CA 160-01 Topics in Communication: Writing for Television and Radio. New faculty member Janice Haynes will teach the course. The three credit hour class will meet noon-12:50 p.m., MWF from Aug. 24-Dec. 18 in the communication arts lab Rm 237.

If you are interested in enrolling in this class, you can add it during the first week of school during the drop/add period in the START office or through your MyCSC account.

If your have questions, you can visit Haynes in her office #216 second floor of Old Admin.

“Haynes will compliment the [communication arts] department and offer a new perspective on media,” said Kathleen Kirsch, social and communication arts professor.

The institution currently has a radio station, and the communication arts department would like to get students involved eventually. However, before students can become involved in that medium, they must first learn to write for the medium and be understood by the listeners.

“Haynes is excited about doing hands on work with students and is looking forward to teaching in Chadron State’s Essential Studies Program,” Kirsch said.
