Media School Names Founding Dean

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at IU chapter.

Journalism; communication and culture; telecommunications majors and anyone interested in the newly founded Media School needs to know James Shanahan. Shanahan, currently Professor of Communications at Boston University, was recently named the founding dean of the IU Media School.

Media students, keep your eyes pealed around campus and you just might meet the new dean, yourself – especially when Franklin Hall, currently under construction, reopens in Fall 2016.

Melanie Metzman is a sophomore at Indiana University majoring in Journalism and Communication and Culture.

She is obsessed with all things fashion and beauty and dreams of writing for a major fashion magazine after graduation. Keep of with Melanie on Twitter @melanie_metzman
