[start of the academic year]

While Monday was the actual start to the new (undergraduate) academic year, the lectures and seminars that I'm involved with *really* began today. I'm leading seminars for MEDS 1000: Introduction to Media, MEDS 2000: Methods of Media Research, and MEDS 2007: New Media (can you spot a trend). I've also been invited to give guest lectures (how amazing is that?) for Simon Perril's new Creative Writing course and Margaret Montgomerie's Media Texts and Representations module and her Media Discourse module. I've also started a blog for the New Media course and hopefully students (and readers) will start participating.
