SOS:  MEDIA  2004-5       It begins

Faculty:  Sally Cloninger [Fall and Spring]; Ruth Hayes [Winter]

Com. 305, 867-6959, cloninsj@evergreen.edu

Basic ground rules:

  • SOS: Media stands for student-originated studies.  This means that you are in charge of your educational goals and objectives, what you do and what you accomplish.
  • Each quarter faculty will help you arrange a schedule that is supportive of the learning community and of your individual work.  There will be required class meetings, however. 
  • Each quarter we will take on a program theme on top of your individual or collaborative production work.  This quarter the theme is building a media community (ours!).
  • You may register for one part time class in addition to your  individual or collaborative media work.  Credits in SOS:  Media can be either 12 or 16.
