The media is a pervasive force in contemporary society, revolutionizing the way we think about our world, each other and ourselves -- making it all the more important for a media literate public.
Media literacy is a critical thinking skill, providing strategies for interpreting media messages.
The Media Literacy program isn't simply a means to "bash" the media, but an opportunity to take a step back and examine the message and the messenger, to make independent choices about what we watch, read and hear.
Students majoring in Media Communications with an emphasis in Media Literacy learn how to become discerning consumers and producers of media.
