Dear Ms. Clark,
I'm so happy to know Dr. Byrd made the inquiry!  It looked as if the venue info was confirmed in what you sent before but now I understand.  I can't think of anyone else in any acknowledgements other than those I listed yesterday below.   Please look at the approved program I attached before for 2011.  It appears I didn't get an electronic copy of the approved 2012 program and flyer but this is what we proposed and you can see the program info/line up.  Of course the speaker is different.  Thanks for laying out the info I sent the way Publications wants it and seeing the process through.

Dr. Daufin,
Dr. Byrd DID inquire about the venue for the event and provided the information to me. The tentative information is listed below in the original email that I sent to you with my request for additional information. Please send to me the line-up of the program; who will make announcements. Also, who would you like to thank and acknowledge in addition to those you mentioned in your reply?  Thank you.

Please check with Dr. Byrd...last I heard she had not inquired re: the Buskey Auditorium.  I'll be glad to hear differently if that is the case. You can acknowledge the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication Minorities And Communication Division for their "co-sponsorship" of the event.  You may also want to say that it is a Black History Month event. Our Dean Leon Wilson has agreed to give a brief welcome. Is there any other info you need? Thanks for doing this.

Dr. Daufin,
Below is the beginnings of the info I will be sending to Haley Cumbie so that she can create the flyer and program for the Ida B. Wells event. However, I need the ceremony speakers and also who to include in the "Thanks/Acknowledgements." Can you please provide that information to me. Thank you.

The History of the Event: 

The Ida B. Wells Lecture is an annual program designed to highlight the relationships between the mass media and the  African-American community.  The emphasis is on critical areas of   African-American participation in mass media.  By bringing these issues to light, and up for public discussion, the hope is that  we can become more critical, analytical and demanding in our use of and relationships with the mass media.

Mrs. Ida B. Wells-Barnett, a pioneer African-American journalist, publisher and civil rights activist, epitomizes the journalistic  ideals and the level of consciousness that we in the Department of   Communications strive to develop in our students.  Her determination to achieve her goals in the face of adversity, coupled with her professionalism and influence on the growth of the African-American press are the factors that made us dedicate the lecture series to her memory.

 

About the Guest Speaker:

Please find CV attached

 

 

The Speaker's Presentation:

His lecture will be about African Americans in Entertainment-Education Television Comedy from the 1970’s and 1980’s (such as Good Times, The Jeffersons, Cosby Show, That's My Mama), the beneficial and detrimental influences of their intentionally pro-social messages to educate and inspire audiences using the theories of Everett Rogers.
