"The communication and media program at Nazareth is strong not only because of its rigorous curriculum, but because of the supportive faculty within the program. I wouldn't be the person I am today without the guidance of Professors Leah Stacy, Carolyn Lagoe, and Dr. Ginny Skinner-Linnenberg — and I wouldn't be as interested in social media if it weren't for the classes taught by Professor Stacy. The communications & media program gave me all the tools I needed for the job I have now, and I find myself constantly thinking back to the things that I learned in class. This program helped me build awareness of how to communicate information to diverse audiences effectively, with specific goals in mind."
