My name is Creig Smith, and I’m a senior (graduating in three weeks!!!).  I’m travelling with a group of students to the Czech Republic to study the various ways that media operate differently in that part of the world as opposed to here, a continuation of Dr. Michael Elavsky’s COMM 410 course (highly recommended, by the way).  We’ll be spending a week in Prague with a host of media organizations to gain a better understanding of the ways in which they operate.  More than that, we’ll be taking in the sights and sounds of the city as much as possible in the short time we’ll be there.  I’m really looking forward to the trip and hoping that this volcanoe business clears itself up in the next few weeks so our trip goes down without a hitch.
