New Film Studies Minor
Three faculty members have launched a Film Studies minor to help students develop the visual literacy skills that are necessary to participate in the civic community and workforce of a society in which the visual image is vital to communication.
Bill Hamilton (English), Kerry Hustwit (Communication and Digital Media), and Jim Kain (Liberal Arts) collaborated for more than two years to develop the minor in which students will choose from a wide range of theory, genre, production, and special-topics courses. The 18-credit minor offers two concentrations: Film Analysis (mainly English courses) and Film Production (mainly CDM courses).
