Dr Annemarie Galeucia and David 'Boz' Bowles, MFA, are members of the Communications Across the Curriculum (CxC) team at Louisiana State University in the U.S.A. The CxC team created the Distinguished Communicator Medal Program in 2005, supporting students before effective communicators.
In this episode, Annemarie and Boz talk about the evolution of the program in which portfolios play a crucial role and discuss how and why the portfolio component has changed over time and how the team supports students.
A cool thing about the programme? Students receive an actual medal upon graduation.
