SPME400 Capstone in Sports Media
3 Credits
The capstone is an issues-based topics course. We will study a contemporary situation in sports media (e.g., Title IX, domestic abuse by athletes, substance abuse, etc.) to understand the ways in which media coverage of the subject has been more or less effective, how that coverage has influenced public opinion, and how sports media professionals might handle the topic more effectively. The course, therefore, will also involve ethical considerations, so we will explore the subject of communication ethics. Prereqs: SPME Major & Senior Standing.
