A new course that examines how visions of the future shape current communications is being offered as part of the fall 2006 coursebook.

Futuristic Communications, taught by Jason McEntee, assistant professor of English, will examine the idea of futurism both as an artistic movement and as a means to gauge the role of technology in national and global settings.

McEntee said the idea for the class came from Provost Carol Peterson.
