Check out decades of doodles

With two weeks under our belts, we had a College wide meeting today to welcome new faculty and staff, honor and salute the achievements of departing Dean Chuck Salmon and find out the process for searching for and selecting a new dean.

MSU Provost Kim Wilcox was positive and upbeat. This will be an exciting and significant year of change for the College, and the J-School is sure to feel the impact.

Our three new faculty (Joe Grimm, Nancy Hanus and Michael Stamm) are adjusting well to MSU, our students and their classes. They are welcome additions to a very strong staff.

Be sure to check out info graphics guru and all time great MSU faculty member Karl Gude’s decades of doodles. Karl doodled through staff meetings at UPI, AP, Newsweek among other places—and still doodles through meetings here. Enjoy!

Also check out Joe Grimm’s latest Poynter column on changes in the news industry and how to cope with lay-offs and buyouts. Joe writes a regular column for Poynter and has a phenomenal network that will help students find the best jobs.

The Spartans play at home this weekend. Go Green!
