[ATrain]

I can get the main libertyflames.com page, but none of the articles and all the other LU pages are down as well.

[PAmedic]

I can't even get that to load.

probably something running on a MAC somewhere

(OH, I WILL PAY FOR THAT ONE)

[SuperJon]

I just experienced the same thing cause I was gonna register for classes so, instead of posting on here, I asked him directly. They're having some problems over there tonight.

[PAmedic]

http://www.trbc.org/ down as well.

something is definitely muckety-muck here

[El Scorcho]

Yep. We're having problems. Working on it. Thanks for all the help.

[PAmedic]

just here to help

disregard the MAC comments

I'm drunk ? ? ?

I KEED, I KEED

[ATrain]

So how much longer till this issue is fixed?

[thepostman]

[SuperJon]

I love my major.

[thepostman]

the more i read this sport management stuff the more i think i chose the wrong major...i love broadcasting...but man...those classes would be amazing...plus the coms department has gone to crap in the last couple of years....i haven't felt like i have learned anything from the professors in a long, long time....i just seem to be learning it on my own...and from other students

[SuperJon]

You could've gotten a degree in Sport Management and then went the Sport Communication route after that.

Spring semester I'll have Sport Finance, Sport Marketing, and Administration and Organization, along with Econ and CRST and I'll be done.

[thepostman]

yeah, could've. should've, would've....nothing i can really do about it now...if i changed things now i be in another 2 years...oh well...such is life...i will be fine...i could've just had a lot more fun...there is only so much Dr Windsor I can take....

[Sly Fox]

Motor learning? Going to start taking apart a carburator?

I bet you tried some Chesse Whiz didn't you? O it's so good and a great time saver for snacks

[Sly Fox]

He's still using that Cheese Whiz? I wasn't reading that crappy copy over two decades ago.

Fred Haas was the man. You guys missed out on a quality prof back in the day.

[Cider Jim]

Intro to Coaching

Coaching Baseball was the last elective I ever took in my English major back in '83, and I'm still using the knowledge from that course today: T-ball practice begins tomorrow!

[SuperJon]

Unfortunately the only coaching classes we have now are Football and Basketball. At one time they were planning on adding baseball/softball and soccer but never did. I'm not sure if it's in the works now or not.

[LUconn]

Spring semester I'll have Sport Finance, Sport Marketing, and Administration and Organization, along with Econ and CRST and I'll be done.

How are these classes advantageous over regular finance, and regular marrketing. Aren't you just limiting yourself?

[Hold My Own]

well, they go over #'s that are used in sports such as budgets, fans, etc


but yes, you end up hurting yourself b/c these classes are a joke compared to the real finance classes

That's kind of the point of a liberal arts education, dude. It's supposed to teach you to learn on your own and from those around you. Honestly, the singlemost important class I ever took at Liberty and the ONLY one that I still use content from on a daily basis was COMS 333; Small Group Communication. Most of it was about reading other people's body language and non-verbal communication. Really helps when you're buying a car or in a job interview or playing poker for money
...not that I do that sort of thing.

Switch over into print journalism...we still learn from our profs

[Sly Fox]

Print journalism? Nearly every school in America is dropping that major. All my newspaper friends in Houston are trying to get into radio & television. But if its your passion then go for it.

I had Dr Windsor for Announcing so I ended up reading that same copy.

My favorite prof in COMS would probably be Mr. Kendall. I had him for my advanced practicum, and I currently have him for A/V Basics. That guy works harder than a lot of people I know, and he really wants to see his kids do well and have the best stuff to work with in order to make it in their respective field

Well the program is continually being revamped...we're having to do video and audio work as well for my journalism classes, plus the classes we have to take that teach you how to design websites and stuff. Its a lot more than just writing.
