FIU JOURNALISM STUDENTS GAIN REAL-WORLD EXPERIENCE AT SOUTH FLORIDA MEDIA NETWORK

Every journalism student knows that you need a lot of experience to land a full-time job. So when senior journalism major Mariandrea Vergel Prieto heard she could report from New York this fall for class credit, she packed her bags and quit her job in corporate communications.

“It was a tough decision. But it was the right one,” Prieto said.

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT

SOFIE GUERRA’S 
INTERNSHIP WITH ARTIST AND HONORS COLLEGE PROFESSOR JOHN BAILLY

What did you do there? I curated a collection of more than 1,200 works on paper by Bailly to showcase his artistic process and emphasize the culmination of the three large paintings in the show. In between, I helped Bailly do field research for his paintings throughout the Deering Estate. He is a visual artist who makes large scale oil paintings and is currently creating art in a studio on the shores of Biscayne Bay.

STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: ANDREA LEON-MORENO – RATCLIFFE ART + DESIGN INCUBATOR FELLOW

Why did you decide to come to FIU for Music and what path did you take to get to where you are now?
Florida International University has a great music business program. The professors care about the students’ education and are well-practiced mentors. The path that I took to get to where I am now is that I learned about music, being a performer, and learning about what is needed to put on a production.

MELANIE RODRIGUEZ’S 
FIRST JOB AS A JUNIOR SPECIAL EVENTS MANAGER FOR FIU

How has FIU helped you get to where you are today in your career?
FIU has helped me get to where I am today because of the endless on campus involvement opportunities. Without the experience I acquired in organizations like Homecoming Council, Student Government Association, and my Greek organization, Delta Phi Epsilon, I wouldn’t have the experience I needed to further my career. I also worked as a student assistant in the Office of the Provost where I was able to network and learn many skills that help me in my role today.

This project is an exploration of the process through which we digest the built environment. Contemporary architecture is experiencing a pedagogical shift not limited to representation, speculation, and professionalism. The means through which we consume this information continues to change, presenting itself as a malleable organism to be observed.

FIU Architecture alumnus Andrew Santa Lucia of Office Andorus will be exhibiting at this event, which will take place during Miami Art Week 2019.

FACULTY SPOTLIGHT

7 QUESTIONS WITH FIU THEATRE STAFF MARIANNA MURRAY

If you’ve visited or called the FIU Theatre office in the last two decades, chances are you know Marianna Murray. For the last 22 years, Marianna has served as the department’s Office Coordinator, running a busy office and helping faculty, students, and guests with a smile on her face and a calming presence that would rival any Buddhist monk. Today is her final day before she begins the next exciting stage of her life – retirement. It’s a bittersweet day for us at FIU Theatre as we send her off with hearts full of love and gratitude. But we didn’t want to let her go without getting her in the hot seat for a game of 7 Questions. She did not disappoint.
