Telecommunication Advisory Council to Visit CJC Next Week

Get ready Gators! The UF College of Journalism and Communications Telecommunication Advisory Council will be visiting next week!

The council is composed of professionals representing all career phases in most of the areas our students are interested in gaining employment. The members visit campus each semester to meet individually and in small groups with students. They also are available to answer questions or give advice throughout the year.

The week will start off Rapid Fire on Wednesday, October 8th. This is your chance to ask any questions you have about the industry to all TAC members and to have them answered! Pizza and drinks will be served in the Weimer atrium starting at 6, while Rapid Fire is set to begin at 6:15. The location for Rapid Fire is TBA.

Other events include break-out panel sessions and taking a TAC member out to lunch! Sign-ups for taking a member out to lunch are in the Telecommunication Department's Advising office.
