Hi Holly,
I'm in the English dept. at Old Dominion University (which is a medium-
sized public institution), but I have several colleagues in
communication who teach such courses. Here are the titles of the
courses:
Comm 340. Mass Media and Popular Culture
Comm 365. Electronic News
Comm 447W/547. Electronic Media Law and Policy
Comm 448/548. International Media Systems
Comm 465/565. Mass Media and the National Elections
Comm 472T/572. New Media Technologies
There is also a digital journalism course that I don't see listed but
that I know is taught on a regular basis. You can find short course
descriptions at: http://www.odu.edu/al/comm/
curriculum_descriptions.html.
