I Want To Know ...

Hey alums and current magazine students. I have question for you.

What legal and ethical issues of new media (ie blog, vlogs, wikis, social networking sites, etc.) concern you? What do you have questions about in your own careers or classes related to these topics?

The Drake SJMC Junior National Advisory Council is hosting a seminar on the topic on Friday, October 19 in the Drake Legal Clinic courtroom. It's from 3 to 5 p.m. and if you're in Des Moines and can make it we'd love to see you there. We have 6 expert panelists representing the following fields: law, magazines, newspapers, PR, advertising, and broadcast/radio. And in addition to giving you insights into how they deal with legal and ethical issues surrounding new media in their own fields, they'll be answering your questions.

So if you have any questions of comments you'd like to share, post them here. And if you're around, come join us at the seminar. It's free (and there will be treats afterward).

And stay tuned ... If the stars align, a podcast of the event will be available online. More about that later.
