We’re number forty-four!














The Masters In Communication web site has just included this blog in their list Public Speaking 101: The Top Online Resources. They divided those resources into four categories:

46 sites under Public & Professional Speaking
         
25 sites under Presentation Blogs & Tools

9 sites under Speechwriting

21 sites under General Communication & Debate


Joyful Public Speaking was number 44 of the 46 sites in the Public & Professional Speaking category. How big of a deal is this? Not very.

That web site also has what they claim is a Detailed List of Campuses that have a Masters in Communication Program. No universities are listed here in Idaho, which is curiously incomplete since Boise State University has such a program. I know that because I have met one of their students, Jim Poston. In Utah only Westminster College in Salt Lake City is listed, although the University of Utah in that city also has a program. For Oregon only George Fox University and the University of Oregon are listed, although over in Portland both Portland State University and the University of Portland have programs.

Thanks for pointing this out. I think we should be looking at this more closely when we teach public speaking- it is subtle but very important.
