The group hosted a Teaching Marathon with Visual Communication and two panels highlighting top research papers. Additionally, Terracina-Hartman presented her paper, “Social Justice in Campus Media: How student journalists report, reflect, and respond to the killing of Breonna Taylor #SayHerName” in a joint Scholastic/College Media Division panel.
