Communications

A live webinar from Hollywood, featuring IC alums Dave Rogers '92, producer and director of The Office, and Rand Geiger '06, producer of Stranger Things. Dave and Rand will share stories of how they got their starts in the Los Angeles film and television industry, offer advice to aspiring producers and directors, and discuss their current projects such as Upload & Free Guy. This webinar will also include a Q&A session, so get your questions ready!

Please join the Park School Dean’s Team as they share highlights of the fall term, plans for reopening the Park School for the spring semester, and the launching of exciting summer initiatives. The conversation will then shift to the state of the industry. Alumni representing many different sectors of communications nationally will join the roundtable remotely to discuss what they are seeing in their particular city, the challenges they have observed, and offer suggestions on how to best secure a job or internship during this unprecedented time.

The Department of Communication Studies, Project Look Sharp, and the Park Center for Independent Media announce a live event Thursday October 22 at 8:45pm EDT for a watch party and discussion of the debate - in real time.

A group of Ithaca College communications and media literacy experts will be on hand to answer questions and provide commentary as we view this historic event together.. Please RSVP to:
