a blog series
About the Blog
Communications Academia at a Glance is a blog series that is dedicated to another aspect of communications that fuels my ambition: academic communications (besides the strategic organizational aspect of communications). The series intends to reinform what the communication studies have found and achieved, oftentimes in sophistication, in a way that reflects more clarity, brevity, and comprehension.

Typically, each blog post concisely examines either a terminology, a model, a phenomenon, or a premise that is embraced by the communication academia and impacts the communication profession.

You are encouraged to comment on the posts, share them with others, and learn something valuable. Together, we can help to bridge the chasm between the scholars and the people.
