Dealing with the Media 561

Every once in a while, I do a google search to see what I've been up to lately. Someone I know thinks it is a waste of time, and it probably is. Still, I sometimes find out something new. For example, an article I wrote a decade ago is now on the reading list for a course taught at the University of Pennsylvania, entitled "Dealing with the Media, GAFL 561" at the Fels Institute of Government. It is taught by The Honorable Marjorie Margolies-Mezvinsky, Chair, Women’s Campaign International, Lecturer, Fels Institute of Government. Her co-instructor for the course is Brian Selander, Managing Director, Silver Oak Solutions.

Wow.
