Speno received a bachelor’s degree from the University of Missouri-Columbia, a master’s degree from the University of Delaware, and a doctorate from the University of Missouri-Columbia, all in communication and media studies. She joined the SIUE faculty in 2017 and her research focuses on issues of gender and sexualization in the media, adolescents’ experiences with new media technologies, and the effects of media on attitudes, behaviors, health outcomes. and self-concept.

Recently, Speno received the 2021-22 Vaughnie Lindsay New Investigator Award, which recognizes faculty members whose research promises to make significant contributions to their fields of study, their respective school or department, and to SIUE in general. The award will support her project entitled “An Examination of the Intersection of Gender and Race in Tween Television Programming”.

“How did you become interested in communication and media studies? Leonardo asks.

“I was the undergrad who changed majors six or seven times,” says Speno. “I did the social science tour and ended up in a course on media in society, and I became fascinated with how people learn from media.

“My teacher explained how women are sexually objectified in the media, how this affects how we see ourselves as women and how others treat women. I love the abstract thinking associated with the major. We spend a third of our lives with screen media and rarely study it.

Now, Speno teaches a similar entry-level mass communication course at SIUE with the same enthusiasm she had as a student during her lectures.

“Was there a pivotal moment when you realized you wanted to dedicate your career to this field? Leonardo asks.

“I did two undergraduate internships, but they didn’t have the social science element I was looking for,” Speno replies. “Afterwards, I made an appointment with my adviser who asked me what I liked to do, money on the side. I told her that I liked our classes and learning, and she helped me apply for graduate school. I’m first and foremost a learner, and that’s what kept me coming back for more.

Because of her experience, Speno pushes her students to apply for internship opportunities to learn what they like and dislike about communications.

“What personal experiences helped guide your research? asks Leonardo.

“A main vein that runs through my research concerns objectification theory, and I am also interested in sexism and gender representations,” Speno shares. “My experience growing up with dance helped me understand objectification. In shows like Dance Moms, young girls wear skimpy outfits at a young age. Jean Kilbourne calls it adultification, which is also something something that I have studied throughout my research.

Speno’s experiences with sexism also helped her understand gender and sexism through media. As a pregnant woman, she is currently interested in the impact of motherhood and postpartum celebrity culture on thoughts of self during pregnancy.

“Is there a set of questions that have guided your research throughout your career? Leonardo asks.

“My main question is what do young people learn from the media?” said Speno. “Another question that has persisted throughout my research is what are the effects of media sexual objectification on individuals? Finally, I ask what kinds of media production people create and why.”

“What conclusions have you drawn from your research? asks Leonardo.

“I’ve found that girls are underrepresented in tween TV shows and are generally portrayed as being more attractive and concerned about their appearance,” says Speno. “Girls learn early on that appearance is the most important thing and that it is appropriate and even desirable for others to comment on their appearance. I learned that sexual objectification of women and girls is widespread and has negative effects such as self-objectification and reduced cognitive abilities.

The University of Cape Town (UCT) Center for Film and Media Studies (CFMS) has been selected as one of the 11 regional hubs of the next International Communication Association (ICA) Conference. Cape Town will be one of four regional hubs in Africa – the others are Cairo, Nairobi and Port Harcourt. The ICA annual conference is scheduled to take place May 21-26, 2022 in Paris, France, and is one of two major events attracting the world’s leading media and communications experts.

The other major annual conference is organized by the International Media and Communication Research Association (IAMCR). The ICA has its roots in 1950 when it was established as the National Society for the Study of Communication. This year will see the 72nd edition of the ICA annual conference.

World Scene

After being selected to host the regional hub, CFMS Associate Professor Tanja Bosch and current President of the South African Communications Association (SACOMM) said: “This will certainly raise the profile of CFMS. It certainly makes us and our work much more visible on the world stage.

Associate Professor Bosch will personally attend the conference in Paris. She will be accompanied by two of her CFMS colleagues – Professor Herman Wasserman and Dr Liani Maasdorp. All three will present papers that have been accepted for the conference.

“This will give local media and communications specialists a fantastic opportunity to be part of the energy and atmosphere of the ICA conference.”

The concept of regional hubs was born out of the realization that not everyone may be able to attend the conference in person due to travel restrictions resulting from the COVID19 pandemic. Selection as host of the regional hub followed a competitive process, which began with a response to an ICA call for proposals.

Opportunity for local media and communications specialists

The CFMS will host the regional center for the ICA annual conference in collaboration with SACOMM. The regional hub will host face-to-face local events, virtual socials and a virtual panel. The local organizing committee now has their work cut out to develop the program and finalize the list of participants by the end of April.

“Given the prestigious nature of ICA’s work, it is very important that we have been selected to host the regional hub, as it will offer local media and communications specialists a fantastic opportunity to be part of the energy and the atmosphere of the ICA conference in Paris, even if they are not physically able to be there,” said Bosch.

Students will have the option of minoring in media studies starting this fall. The new minor will replace the Mass Communication minor in the Department of Rhetoric and Public Address, offering a broader study of media. Media studies will be included in the 2022 – 2023 course catalog.

“I want students to think critically about their media environment, learn the analytical tools to make sense of an increasingly complex and mediated world,” Stoneman said. “I also hope that they will be inspired to find ways – with or against or alongside technology – to fortify and maintain the integrity of the human being and to extend the power of the individual in harmony with an equally strengthened community.”

The minor’s courses cover media history, theory and criticism. Academic courses include courses such as media ecology, propaganda, social control, and conservative critiques of technology. Media criticism courses study narrative film, documentary and television. Although most courses contain a historical component, specific history courses like broadcasting history will be offered, Stoneman said.

“When I joined the faculty, we had a few media courses in the books,” said Ethan Stoneman, assistant professor of rhetoric and public address. “I wanted to expand those offerings into something that would be more widely usable by Hillsdale students.”

Stoneman suggested the idea of ​​the miner. The provost and promotion and tenure committee asked Stoneman to submit a plan to address his “dream department” as part of his tenure application.

After producing a plan, the RPA department proposed the changes to the faculty, which were well received and adopted, according to department chair Kirstin Kiledal.

Stoneman said he received input from Kiledal, RPA Lecturer Brita Stoneman, Dean of Humanities Stephen Smith and Senior Provost Advisor Mark Maier.

Kiledal said that since the minor is not in the 2021 – 2022 course catalog, an estimate of the number of media studies minors is not yet available. However, the specialized media studies courses this semester included approximately 25 students.

Kiledal explained the need to rebrand the former mass communications miner.

“Changes to the minor reflect developmental changes in the field, growth in academic rigor, reduction in credit hours for the minor, and important areas of faculty knowledge and interest,” she said.

Students could minor in media studies for many reasons, according to Kiledal.

“Some are interested in careers in the media or in media in general, or in journalism and some seek contemporary studies and opportunities in critical methods and analytical skills across the spectrum of communication,” said she declared.

In the Fall 2022 semester, the Media Studies minor will offer courses in Media and Culture, Propaganda and Social Control, Media Theory and Critique, and Film: History and Form. No prerequisites are required for any of the classes.

“The miner is really something special,” Stoneman said. “There is no other study program anywhere else quite like it. That’s because we developed it with the Hillsdale student body in mind.

Junior Carson Brown said he took his first media studies course, Media Ecology, early in his second year.

“I found it to be one of my first courses that really connected all of the humanities in a holistic way,” he said. “I decided to choose the minor in media studies because I felt like it was one of the few courses I had taken that gave me a practical insight into my way of life from the liberal arts perspective that I came to Hillsdale for.”
