\"SPS<\/p>\n

Not many people know this yet, but starting in the Fall of 2013, I will be taking over the Academic Directorship of the Communications and Media (B.A.) program at the CUNY School of Professional Studies<\/a>\u00a0(SPS). It is a four year online degree program that\u00a0offers an interdisciplinary focus on issues related to communications and the convergence between new and traditional media.<\/p>\n

I had my first meeting today with the Deans and the other Academic Directors at SPS. In truth, I was a bit overwhelmed by the enthusiastic reception that I received from everyone. I was offered the position a few month back and jumped at the opportunity because I believe that online programs are destined to play a big part in the future of education.<\/p>\n

I was very happy and excited to meet my new colleagues and I look forward to helping them enhance an already amazing series of programs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
