Fall COMM schedule includes JoePa class – The Collegian
My college is offering a special class called COMM 497G Joe Paterno, Communications & the Media. “The class, which will explore how Paterno’s relationship with the media has changed over the years, will be offered in fall 2008 and will be available to juniors and seniors”
I am sure the demand for this class will be quite high. I would want to take it. Hopefully, a student in the class will blog about it. Failing that, getting semester long subscription to Nittany Notes (with shipping included) seems the way to go.
Paterno has been invited to speak to it, but the invitation has not yet been accepted.
Of course, the big question is how long will such a class be timely? There was another article (Post-Gazette) quoting anonymous trustees about Paterno’s contract status. Nothing has changed and no real information is available yet.
I think the best case scenario would be a three-year contract extension with Paterno retiring after one or two years. That may not happen though.
