Elon interactive

Elon University has announced a one-year master's program in interactive media.

Students in the full-time, one-year program will learn to create and deliver text, graphics, audio, video and other content through a variety of media channels including the Internet and mobile devices. In addition to producing interactive content, students will study theories of communication and audience analysis.

It seems to cover the bases. I like this line in the story on the Elon Web site: During Elon’s four-week Winter Term, students will participate in a domestic or international fly-in to gather content for a special team project designed to serve the public good. (Bold is mine.)

Admission seems to require a 3.0 grade point average as an undergrad. I got my B.A. 30+ years ago. With grade inflation, you think my 2.25 would equal out to a 3.0 in today's environment?
