It looks like I sent several of you on a wild goose chase last night, and Jean Kilbourne spoke at the University of Illinois Springfield last year at this time. So ...
If you went down to UIS, my apologies. Let me know, and I'll give you an appropriate amount of extra credit. Why don't you post it as a comment to this blog? That way, I'll be sure to see it at grade-averaging time. No proof necessary: I'll trust you.
A weblog for Pete Ellertsen's mass communications students at Benedictine University Springfield.

About Me
- Pete
- Springfield (Ill.), United States
- I'm a retired English, journalism and cultural studies teacher at Springfield College in Illinois (acquired by Benedictine University and subsequently closed). I coordinate jam sessions for the "Clayville Pioneer Academy of Music" at Clayville Historic Site and the Prairieland Strings dulcimer club, and I sing in the choir and the contemporary praise team at Peace Lutheran Church in Springfield. On Hogfiddle I post links and video clips for our sessions and workshops on the mountain dulcimer (a.k.a. "hog fiddle"), as well as research notes on folklore and cultural studies, hymnody and traditional Anglo-Celtic and Scandinavian music. I also posted assignments and readings in my interdisciplinary humanities classes. The Mackerel Wrapper (now on hiatus), carried assignments and readings for my mass comm. students. I started teaching b/log when I chaired SCI-Benedictine's assessment committee, and reopened it as the privatization of public schools grew increasingly troubling and closer to home.

thank u for wasting my gas!!!!
it took me 20 min to get out there and wasted maybe a gallon of gas so i will take 800 extra credit points please!!!
I did go toUIS to see Jean Kilbourne. After about an hour trying to find where and if she was on schedule for the Brookins Auditorium it was the wrong date.
I did a Claritas zipcode for 75211. It came up as Dallas, Tx most used zipcode.
David, you're going to make me cry. You don't want to see a grown man cry!
I was there too!
Well, I not only went to UIS, but I also promoted it to Liz's class for extra credit, TV Production class and Pr Club!!!! OOps!!!!
