Comm-entary, the Undergraduate Journal of Communication
Comm-entary is the annual student journal of communication, founded in 1981. Articles are "blind-reviewed" by a student editorial board, that is, the editors do not know the names of the authors of submitted work until after an article has been accepted for publication. Copies of Comm-entary and a folder with the tables of contents of all issues are available for reference in the department office. Any communication major, as well as any other undergraduate student, may submit material for consideration and possible publication. Submission guidelines are available in the department office. Students interested in working on the editorial board of Comm-entary should see Professor Sheila McNamee. (Note: Since most of the articles in Comm-entary are based on papers students have written for upper-level communication courses, the journal is also an excellent way for prospective majors to preview the type of projects that majors work on in advanced courses.)

"What has become known as the 'Age of Communication' in contemporary life finds in this lively, student-organized journal a wealth of stimulating exemplars. Comm-entary provides fresh perspectives on a wide range of communication phenomena and events. For the past fourteen years, it has established itself as a unique prestigious avenue to showcase student excellence in thinking and writing about this important field." Professor John Nguyet Erni |
"Comm-entary is an important publication for it not only allows student articles to be published pertaining to the field of communication, but it provides an avenue for students to be involved in the production of a high quality publication." Walter Peterson |
