    18995_r2:_ 3/6/09 3:30 PM Page 1 Conversations DEPAUL A publication for alumni of the College of Communication Winter 2009 Vol. 2 No. 2 Chicago’s top media, advertising, PR figures share their knowledge in college’s classrooms While the textbook still has its place in the classroom, the real-world professional experience of adjunct faculty and guest speakers adds an exciting dimension to many College of Communication courses. Adjuncts and guest speakers “can share their knowledge and really keep our programs current,” says Dean Jacqueline Taylor. “They bridge the world of higher education and the workplace.” WCollege of Communication students can expect to see professionals such as marketing and advertising executive Dorothy Balabanos teaching Principles of Advertising, Chicago Sun-Times investigative reporter Art Golab taking a turn as a guest speaker in instructor Mike Conklin’s Special Topics in Journalism course, or Chicago Tribune Lifestyle Editor Linda Bergstrom teaching Feature Writing. “There would be something hollow about a journalism program where instructors haven’t worked in the industry, and that’s why all of ours have,” Taylor says. With their extensive backgrounds and deep ties to Chicago’s media community, full-time and adjunct faculty have their antennae up for new adjunct candidates to keep the pool expanding. Adjuncts and guest speakers come from some of the city’s top outlets in radio, television, print, public relations and advertising, says Associate Dean Bruno Teboul, who schedules all graduate and Teboul undergraduate classes for the college, and interviews, trains and reviews all faculty. And, they teach 30 percent of the classes in the college, he says.

Comments Judicial Self-Defense in the Court of Public Opinion I. INTRODUCTION Cook County Circuit Judge Lawrence A. Passarella made a fate- ful decision on February 26, 1986. By acquitting a man accused of severely beating a Chicago policewoman with a steel bar, Pas- sarella set off a wave of criticism that resulted in his failure to win retention in the November 1986 general election.' Among the judge's critics were then-Cook County State's Attorney Richard M. Daley, who said Passarella showed a "total disregard of the facts of the case," the Fraternal Order of Police, which organized an anti-retention campaign, and then-Chicago Police Superinten- dent Fred Rice.2 Passarella was not without defenders, however.
