Outlook is Bright for Idaho State University Merger.

This fall marks the start of a new beginning for two departments at Idaho State University. The Communications and Rhetoric Studies department and the Mass Communication department have now become one. The Communication, Media, and Persuasion department was a way to help out both departments in number of students and programs offered.

According to the chair of the department, Jim DiSanza, believes that this will help the college as a whole. With the faculty that the department has he believes that the department will grow. There is also a large amount of jobs out in the world that will be open when the students leave.

With 200 major and minors in the department with 180 of those full majors, the James E. Rogers Communication, Media, and Persuasion looks to start strong and continue in the future. New teachers like Zac Gershburg who is involved with events all of the nation, is excited to begin as a first year teacher at ISU.
