Okay, some of you have heard this from me already, but only a few of ya, so get this:
I am a Communication major (insert snide and well-deserved COMM major joke here) at a liberal arts university. So, for my internship, I have walked away with the impossible--
I am doing a COMM internship drawing comics !
How did I convince my department head of this? Utter manipulation and not backing down. I convinced him that drawing comics-- or, rather, communicating a message with only pictures-- is one of the most difficult ways to communicate a message, and if I did it well, then I am a Communication GURU. Well, somehow, it worked!
So I'm getting PAID for a gig I already had to draw comics I love AND I'm getting COLLEGE CREDIT for it! Hooray for me!
Just thought I'd share. Thoughts/comments/rants?
