Those of you who read my posting of Nov. 13, 2009, may be wondering what happened to the COJO job search for a new faculty member.
It is my pleasure to announce that the search was successful, and we hired Kristen Landreville as a new assistant professor in new media starting fall semester.
Kristen is finishing her dissertation from the Ohio State University and is living in Columbus, Ohio. Her undergraduate degrees are from the University of Florida.
According to her Web site, Kristen's research involves "the intersection of mass and interpersonal communication on political and social outcomes, especially how uncertainty, emotion, and engagement in political entertainment (e.g., documentaries, satire) influence political discussion."
She has published research articles in such journals as Mass Communication and Society and Communication Quarterly.
Next fall, she is scheduled to teach Online Journalism and Politics and the Media.
To find out more about Kristen, check her Web site.

Thanks for the post! I'm so excited to join the faculty and start teaching. I've already started brainstorming about Online Journalism and fun projects we can do in that course. I'll be visiting in mid-April (Apr. 17 to Apr. 21), so I'll definitely stop by campus to visit. :)
