KSC has established two new academic departments: the Department of Holocaust and Genocide Studies and the Department of Journalism.<\/p>\n
Since the College offers the nation’s only baccalaureate degree in Holocaust and genocide studies, it was a logical next step to create a department to build on this successful and growing program. Dr. Paul Vincent<\/strong> will chair the department, which will also include Dr. James Waller<\/strong> (endowed chair of the program), Dr. Henry Knight<\/strong>, and Dr. Nona Fienberg<\/strong> as faculty members.<\/p>\n “I am very pleased to announce our new department. This move demonstrates the college’s commitment to educating students on the issues of genocide and the Holocaust, which continue to shape and challenge our world today,” Dr. Vincent said. “Students have chosen to attend Keene State specifically to take part in this program.”<\/p>\n Keene State College has been teaching journalism since the 1950s, and turning out journalism majors since the 1980s. It also offers New Hampshire’s only journalism degree program in the state’s public education system. The Journalism Department was previously part of the Department of Communication and Philosophy.<\/p>\n Dr. Rose Kundanis<\/strong> will chair the new Journalism Department. Additional faculty includes Julio DelSesto<\/strong>, Dr. Chad Nye<\/strong>, Dr. Marianne Salcetti<\/strong>, and Dr. Mark Timney<\/strong>, who bring a broad range of experience in newspaper and broadcast journalism, including news reporting, editing, anchoring, photojournalism, and multimedia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" KSC has established two new academic departments: the Department of Holocaust and Genocide Studies and the Department of Journalism.
