Over the last 20 years, Communications Day has drawn thousands of young minds to the University of La Verne for the opportunity to learn more about the field that interests them most.

On Friday, October 26 the university?s Communications Department will provide that opportunity once again for current high school and community college students from throughout the region.

A select group of just over 200 students are expected to visit La Verne?s main campus for a day filled with industry-specific communications workshops and a keynote presentation by Nathan Baca, investigative reporter for KLAS-TV (CBS Las Vegas).

Baca, a Nevada resident, is a Sigam Delta Chi and Emmy award winning news reporter. He earned a broadcast journalism degree from La Verne in 2004 and has been active in broadcast news reporting since 2005.

He joined Nevada?s Channel 8 News Now team in 2010, where he received nationwide political attention for his coverage of the 2010 U.S. Senate race.

?Communications Day is known widely as a don?t miss experience,? Communications Department Chair, George Keeler, said. ?Students learn from alumni media celebrities and La Verne professors, and take back to their schools new skills and fresh inspiration.?

Workshops in news writing, photography, graphic design, radio and television production will be conducted by La Verne faculty and alumni. ?Students will have the?opportunity?to get hands-on experience, including use of the department?s computer and broadcast equipment.
