Congratulations to our Recent Graduates!

Welcome our newest Mass Communications alumni: Elizabeth Farmer, Rebecca Johnson, Katie Justice, Victoria McDonald, Cody Nimmo, Zach Petersen, Michelle Rockey and Michelle Sosia! After a hard semester working on their capstones, these eight seniors walked across the stage on May 5 to receive their diplomas. All eight of these Mass Communications majors worked on their capstone during the spring 2012 semester and covered topics ranging from a revamp of WRFP, the student run radio station, to a look into the life of Lillian E. Smith, a famous author from Clayton, Georgia. After preparing all semester, capstone presentations were held on April 25 and 26 in the Swanson Screening room. These eight seniors ranged from students who had started college at Piedmont, a few transfer students and a student who was graduating a year early. We wish all the students the best of luck in all their future endeavors and can't wait to see where their future careers might take them!
