What is Comm-entary? :

Comm-entary is a well established undergraduate communication research journal founded in 1981. It is a student-run organization that relies heavily on fundraising efforts. Students from all different departments on campus can submit original work that is relevant to communication in some aspect. The journal allows students to gain experience in publication and acquire the skills for running an organization.

Comm-entary’s board of executives consists of communication majors who meet the requirement of a 3.5 GPA. Submissions are generally from upper-level courses. Professor Smith, current faculty advisor of the organization, believes the journal to be of the highest quality. Smith states “This journal is made possible by current UNH students who demonstrate academic excellence. The journal may be new every year but the expectation to publish something worth reading has become an annual accomplishment.”

This first call to submit to Comm-entary will be held on Friday October 22^nd in the Union Court from 12-2PM. Refreshments will be provided as the board members actively advertise Comm-entary submissions and opportunities.
