Amanda Stojanov is an Assistant Professor, Department of Communication and a Co-Principal Investigator in the IDM research lab.
I was contacted by Michelle Smith, a graduate student at Monmouth, studying Communications:
"We would like students to create work for the magazine. Although, they could use existing work if it applies to our theme.
Our “Rebirth” theme is based on how the Verge was inactive last year and we are changing the Verge to a new and improved look. To go along with this theme, we’re framing all things new at Monmouth.
If any of your students are interested, they can email me directly."
The old verge looked like this ‐ it "has a lot of content and a bit scattered. We’re looking to have it more clear and concise".
One of last year's group animations, Watching Over You, has been selected for MetroCAF 2019!
The show will take place at NYIT's Auditorium on Broadway, on Friday, September 27 @ 7:15 PM
