Announcements More than
100 students attended The Colonnade's third annual First Amendment Free Food Festival Nov. 16 where they symbolically signed away their First Amendment rights for a little free grub. Students who entered the fake country were ruled by dictators and their “goons”. Many left with a new respect for the freedoms protected by the First Amendment. The event was sponsored by the Society of Professional Journalists and Sodexo with food donations from seven other local restaurants. The Colonnade's Public Relations team- Steffi Beigh, Ala Bishop, and Ally Montemurro- organized the event. The Headliners, the Department of Mass Communication's newsletter, was not published this year. But you can still see the Summer 2010 issue online. Senior print majors Rebecca Burns and Courtney Murrah designed this issue as part of a summer practicum. Public relations writing students contributed copy. The newsletter's template was initially designed by students in McGinley's Newspaper Design class Spring 2009. Alumnus Bo Shell consulted on the project, offering his insights as art director of David Magazine and as a graduate from both the print and advertising concentrations. Shell's bio is on the Alumni Page.
