Dr. Jennifer Cox, assistant professor in the Communication Arts Department, continues the series 7 p.m. Wednesday, November 20, with the talk “I Knew You Before I Met You: How Social Media Has Changed the Way We Communicate.” She explores the social media revolution and how online networks such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube have broken down traditional communication barriers, changing the way many portray themselves and view others.
