Can non majors take communication courses other than Public Speaking or Interpersonal Communication?
All students should consider taking Introduction to Mass Media (COMM 103). To succeed in the current marketplace, you need to understand how the media works and how it affects your life. According to the U.S. Department of Education, “There is widespread consensus in the education and policy communities that media literacy encompasses a crucial set of skills that empowers students to be fully literate and successful members of their communities.” Introduction to Mass Media can be taken as an elective. It can also count in other transfer categories. For example, Rowan University accepts the course as a Social and Behavioral Science, while Stockton College counts Mass Media as Humanities.
