Over the course of a month, over 70 different media outlets covered, wrote stories and turned the attention of their online readers to TWC's Campaign 2012 Academic Seminar.
This seminar provided students with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hear from prominent speakers, participate in fieldwork placements at the Tampa Bay Times Forum and the Time Warner Cable Arena and network with political figures from the first African American mayor of North Carolina to the Executive Producer of the Democratic National Convention. TWC would like to invite you to read online blogs, editorials and publications from the perspective of participating attendees experiencing the conventions firsthand, excited universities and proud communities!
