Don't forget about the Media Panel today from 6:30-8pm in the Frank Hale Cultural Center's Multi-purpose room (100-F). 

The panelists include: NBC4 sports reporter, Omar Ruiz, Columbus Dispatch reporter, Simone Sebastian, Women's Studies Professor, Rebecca Wanzo, NBC4 photojournalist, Charles Busby, and the Columbus Association of Black Journalists president, Sherri Williams. 

The topic presented is "Biases in the Media," where each panelist will give insight and share personal accounts on how women, minorities and marginalized groups are covered in the media currently for the better or worse.
