“Everything communicates. In the Communication department, we define communication as a transaction in which people collectively create and manage social realities. I learned to closely examine my own media practices and carefully ask myself why I consume the media I consume. Through courses such as sports journalism, public relations, media production, news writing, digital photography, and publishing design, I was able to narrow down on what God’s call is for my life, and I believe the same will happen for you!”
