In this
semester’s PR Programs and Campaigns course, students formed groups and were
tasked with the challenge of developing a campaign to launch on campus that
advocates for one of Capital’s organizations. The student group consisting of
Marygrace Chylinski, Sarah Tilton, Kari Hogan, Erin Willford and Eddie Carroll

College can be expensive, and one of the first things we sacrifice is a decent meal. It’s no surprise that a 25 cent pack of ramen that’s ready in three minutes is a college go-to. Not only is it not nutritional, it’s not very filling. Late night bowl of cereal anyone? Believe it or not, unhealthy eating habits can lead to a lot more than the freshman 15....

They weave through social media sites effortlessly, text friends with lightning speed, and journal nearly every hour of their lives through the lens of a smartphone. Collectively, we’re Generation Tech.But we’re also finding out that, despite having endless access to information, Generation Tech is becoming increasingly clueless when it comes to filtering accuracy and trustworthiness in the 24/7/365 news cycle afforded by modern technology.That’s the topical space where Valerie Szabo, a rising senior at Capital University, is spending her summer as part of a 10-week research project. She is one of eight Capital students who have been awarded the honor of Summer Scholar, participating in a high-impact program offered here, which allows students to conduct their own research on campus with a faculty mentor....
