        The official syllabus for each course is a website. 
        <![CDATA[Every assignment, reading, and major class subject has a separate web page. I hope students will post questions and comments directly to the blog, so that I can see where people are looking for answers to their questions, and so that I can tell which pages could use clarification or expansion.<br />]]>

          I'm told that it appears in the catalog as "<strong>Journalism 
          New Media</strong>" because nobody would be able to find it if 
          it were alphabetized under "N". <br clear="all" /><p align="left">
