Ben
Leatherberry
is a senior Communications Major with an emphasis in
Organizational Communications and a minor in Corporate
Communications and Business Administration. Ben took
Organizational Communication in the Fall of 2009. For Ben,
this class was an eye-opening experience where he learned
about communicating strategically within everyday
interactions, group meetings, and organizational settings.
This class taught him great lessons and challenged him to
work harder and more strategically than he ever had in the
past. Ben applied for the teaching assistant position for
this class because he has a passion to see fellow students
learning and growing in their communicative understanding
and skills.
