Day two began with a lecture by Jason MacKenzie at Regent’s University about the current media landscape in the UK. While in black and white this media visit was labeled at a lecture, it […]

From to Student to Wizard
Day two of London took a fun turn. The morning started off with the class going to Regent’s University where we had a lecture with Jason Mackenzie. The lecture was not a long and boring American lecture that I am used to. He was quite entertaining to listen to while getting my fellow peers involved […]
Day Two: A great start to our media visits
After a good night’s sleep and a filling breakfast, we headed to Regents via the Tube and our first lecture.

Day 2: Okay, Eye see you London.
With a full night of sleep, the group felt a little more recharged today and rightfully so because we had a visit to our sister school Regent University here in the heart of London.

It’s the Eye of the Tiger, It’s the Thrill of the Flights

The conversation was more focused around media trends internationally than I expected, but reading British newspapers […]

The gardens were filled with different colored flowers and the building were tall and […]

It began with a full English breakfast at our hotel and prepping ourselves for our first media visit with Jason MacKenzie at Regent’s University.

Day 2: Don’t Stop Me Now – Queen
Today was an exciting one because it was our first media visit of the trip at Regents University. To get there, we had to take the Underground/tube, which was an experience all on its own. I enjoyed the trip because then I was able to get around on it later on my own. After the […]
