Proposal Deadlines on the Horizon




Capstone students also continue checking in with each other and finalize proposals for two keep projects due on Friday, September 22.


The first is the senior project proposal must be in some kind of document form provided to me and kept by the student.
  • It must include a description of the project and how it will add to their body of work and to their portfolio.
  • It must also include a timeline for reaching goals, deadlines, etc.

The second proposal due is an overview for the alumni project.
  • Each student must identify Westminster alum to profile in a report and presentation.
  • This proposal must include contact information and how interviewing this individual will help them network professionally and offer insight about the transition from the college environment to the professional marketplace.

Possible resources for tracking down a subject for the alumni project:
  • The Career Center
  • The WC Alumni Office
  • Faculty, staff & recent BC grads

Capstone students must select a subject who graduated from WC before 2002.

Some of the BC 601 students are heading up our television efforts with The County Line. Aidan, Stevi, D.J. and Steve lead the BC 251 crew and other staff members to a great first show. The show only had a few minor bumps. Great job guys! Meanwhile Leanne is keeping Titan Radio News where Amy is also keeping Friday afternoon newscast on track. Meanwhile Mike's off leading remote crews and Titan Radio to another busy semester.
