Join us on February 22, 2023 at 7:30 in Derryberry Hall Auditorium as we hear from Eboné Bell, founder and Editor-in-Chief of Tagg Magazine. Through her presentation, How to be a Good Ally, Eboné will dive deeper into ways you can show up as an ally, not only during social justice movements but also in everyday life. Participants will take a hard look at how they currently show up in these spaces and how they can do better (with the right tools). Eboné will share ineffective vs. effective ways of ally activism. Participants will also look at breaking through uncomfortability and standing in their purpose.

Hosted by the Commission on the Status of Women and funded through Center Stage. For questions, contact jstepp@tntech.edu

Rural Reimagined would like to recognize Dr. Brenda Wilson (Communication Department Chair and Journalism Professor) and Ms. Bailey Phonsnasinh (Director of Brand Communications) for receiving Level 1 funding (up to $2,500) from our Faculty Grant Program. Dr. Wilson’s team proposed their project titled “Partnering with Local Agencies to Promote Rural Community Service,” which is a collaboration between JOUR 4460 (Public Relations Cases and Practices) and Upper Cumberland regional service agencies that tasks students with developing a promotional campaign to increase awareness and use of the services offered. Students will review related client research, determine objectives and communication strategies that best target their specific audiences, create multimedia messages, and disseminate information to the most likely benefitted publics. We congratulate Dr. Wilson and Ms. Phonsnasinh and encourage other faculty members to submit their ideas in the future!
