Author delivers witty advice
At a networking session prior to his appearance as the first guest of the college’s Distinguished Speaker Series on Nov. 12, author Dave Barry (far right) spoke with (l-r) Chrissy Corrigan ’09 (English), Marlea Liguori ’09 (Organizational Communication), Lee Conell ’09 (English) and Alyssa Jung ’10 (Journalism) about the future of journalism. Following the networking session, Barry spoke to an audience of 900 in the Athletic and Wellness Center. The evening ended with a reception with the Pulitzer Prize-winning author for premium-ticket holders. On April 29, the college will welcome Newsweek senior editor Jonathan Alter in McKenna Theatre. The focus of his talk will be "The American Presidency in War and Peace" as it relates to the new administration’s first 100 days in office. Photo by Danny Wild ’06 (Journalism)
