Where can it take me? What mass media scholars sometimes call "the public conversation" has never been a more exciting and diverse cultural space! People who have been traditionally shut out of this conversation are finding new ways for their voices to be heard. Independent cinema, the Internet and interactive media , support for non-profit organizations, alternative political or social speech, media and performance art, documentary from a personal point of view, and storytelling/oral history are just a few areas where students are encouraged to dive in and explore.
