Today’s “Student Shout-Out” goes to Communication Studies majors An Mai and Jamey Padojino. Why? Because they can now add “published authors” to their long list of accomplishments! Congratulations to An and Jamey on the publication of their ethnography in Writing for a Real World!
An and Jamey’s ethnography, entitled ” Yarn and Yarning: Communication Patterns of a ‘Stitch and Bitch’ Club” from “Communication and Culture” with Professor Ho was one of only 12 papers published in Writing for a Real World. There were 97 entries (that’s an acceptance rate of 12%!!) and each was reviewed by a panel of four referees.
Writing for a Real World is published annually by the Rhetoric and Language Department here at USF and features student authored papers from a range of disciplines.
Congratulations to An and Jamey on this honor! We are so proud of you! Since ethnography involves participant observation, I wonder if this means that An and Jamey can teach me how to pick up my dropped stitches?
YAY! Go An and Jamey – Comm and Culture SuperSTARS!!!
Woohoo!! Thanks, Professor Doohan! I hope people can really tell of my love of puns by now (a yarn isn’t just thread!). My method of participation was actually crochet, so unfortunately I wouldn’t be able to tell you how to pick up dropped stitches in knitting…In crochet you would just add another one in there somewhere and hope that no one notices it! =P
Special thanks to Jamey for being an awesome person to work with!! It seems as though we’ve been destined to work together on serveral COMS projects now and I’m VERY glad that we get along so well!
