What would you like to accomplish as an educator? What are your research goals? What service activities are you going to be involved in? And, finally, what can the law division of AEJMC do to help you meet your goals? During the extraordinarily successful Phoenix convention, I spent some time pondering the goals we should have as members of the law division of AEJMC and my goals as chair of the division. In addition to pondering, I spoke to a number of you about what you'd like to see the division accomplish this year. According to AEJMC's statement: The AEJMC exists to promote the highest possible standards for education in journalism and mass communication, to encourage the widest possible range of communication research, to encourage the implementation of a multi-cultural society in the classroom and curriculum, and to defend and maintain freedom of expression in day-to-day living.

Because administrative demands can limit the time available for research, he recommended that administrators collaborate by involving graduate students. Gleason, a member of the Law Division, also said that reviewing manuscripts and serving as a contributing editor also help to keep him in a scholarly mindset. Sharon Dunwoody, director of the School of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Wisconsin- Madison, also recommended collaborating with other scholars as a way to stay active in research.
