Regarding your fm-l post about the “great” programs of the Center for Communication, Inc. Copy of your post is below. But first, history and context.
Shouldn’t students be informed about the demise of the innovative relationship between the department and the Center for Communication, Inc. when it scheduled numerous panels and events on the Hunter campus, mostly but not exclusively, in the Lang Auditorium, for the benefit of students – and not just those D:F/M majors – so that they didn’t have to trek so much around the city to Center events? For a department with no imagination and no funding for programming for students, the Center relationship was a blessing.
The Chair knows the history. Maybe he might share.
Best,
G Morris

Colleagues Larry Shore, Princess Hee-Haw: Read This Blog
A long time ago I worked out an innovative collaboration with the Center for Communication so that it could schedule seminars, panel discussions and other events on the Hunter campus. Almost all of the activities were held in the rinky-dink Lang Auditorium on the fourth floor of Hunter North. One exception was held in a large lecture room of the Hunter West Building that can seat several hundred – timed to coordinate with the class of Adversarial Colleague Bob Stanley.
SRO – capacity 500.
My job was to make sure that there was plenty of attendance. D:F/M techie Joe Orifice worked with me to take care of logistics. And it was a marvel of a collaboration until the two chairs of D:F/M, in the throes of maniacally egotistical self-aggrandizement, screwed up the collaboration set up for the benefit of students. The Center for Communication did great things for students in the Department of Film and Media Studies as well as for students who weren’t majors.
Nevertheless, Colleagues in my department, like Larry Shore and Princes Hee-Haw (of the Hee-Haw Rangers), still post announcements about the Center’s events as if to keep up the ruse that the DEAD relationship hasn’t been killed off and is still alive. More about this later.
D:F/M Colleagues, including some who have retired. A new logo is in the works.

Because it might be confusing who might be eligible candidates, I will be posting informative anecdotal examples in the coming days and weeks to help those who may want to suggest deserving candidates. Here is the first:
Department Chair Jay Roman, after he was elected to his first term a while back, told me on more than one occasion – when there was the appearance of a collegial relationship and no other Colleague was in the immediate vicinity – that D:F/M was in serious trouble. [Note: A higher echelon dean told me around that time that the D:F/M had been sold out.] But …

D:F/M Colleagues, including some who have retired. A new logo is in the works.
A version of the material below was recently sent to full-time Colleagues in the Department of Film and Media Studies, Hunter College, City University of New York, regarding the latest decision by the Senate Grade Appeals Committee to reverse another in a long line of funky decisions by a D:F/M Grade Appeals Committee to give a passing grade to a student whom I flunked for cheating – and clearly deserved it.

As the fall 2014 semester begins, I believed this is a good time for a moment of recollection. The Hunter College Senate this past spring upheld my appeal of a D:F/M Grade Appeals Committee decision to give a passing grade of B to the worst cheating student in all my years of teaching, not just at Hunter but at Rutgers. And LIU, Brooklyn Campus.
