Monday through Friday, until Thanksgiving break, the Media Studies Department’s Civic Media class will curate a daily set of news stories chosen for relevant, verified content. The goal is to avoid speculation and noise and to seek credible, useful information and perspectives.
Today is our last day of the project. We would like to thank Molly Bryant, Savannah Dewberry and Eran Young for uploading the content every Monday through Friday.
Class Motto: “The moment we break faith with one another, the sea engulfs us and the light goes out.” — James Baldwin. This is our attempt to share some light. — Prof. Teresa Moore
