"The Future of Advertising"

Today we had a guest speaker, Mr. Dietmar Dahmen. Mr. Dahmen gave a presentation about advertising titled "The Future of Advertising". I found both his presentation style and presentation to be very interesting. Mr. Dahmen covered many different areas of advertising from past, present and the future. From his presentation I learned some of the changes that have occurred or is currently occurring around us. This is kind of interesting because most people never really pay close attention to what is changing, due to the fact that changes just gradually ease in our lives. His presentation also put me in another perspective because it made me view the changes in a different way. Overall, I enjoyed the presentation because not only did Mr. Dahmen interacted with the audience, but he also included several jokes which I thought really helped brightened the presentation.

First Day of Class

Today is the first day of class. Professor Delacrus went over the basics of the class: what the class is about and what are we to expect from the class. It's hard to tell how the class will turn out just by the first day, so let's see how is it as the semester progress.
