Anyways, I call the undergraduate journalism program anemic because it consists of three to four courses each term, one of which seems to be half graduate students, and because we do not offer a degree or certificate in journalism. Reasonable people can disagree about that, of course. Congrats on the internships. Erin, we’ve known each other since we were freshmen: call me Tim.

As a senior English and Government double major, I have taken numerous journalism courses at Georgetown--two of which were taught by Dean Feinman Todd--to prepare me for a career in journalism. Thanks to the education I've received from her as well as a handful of outstanding adjunct professors (many, if not all of whom were hired by Dean Feinman Todd), I've secured highly competitive internships at NBC News, Rolling Stone Magazine, and New York City's 1010 WINS news radio, as well as a PR firm and a Teaching Assistant position at the University. I credit a great deal of this to Dean Feinman Todd's mentorship. What I don't understand is how you can call a journalism program that has afforded me so many outstanding opportunities "anemic." I assure you it is anything but. I expect more from the Voice. It is embarrassing for me as an undergraduate to see a student publication showing such utter disrespect for a person who has single-handedly been fighting for more classes, better professors, and more opportunities for us-- Georgetown's student journalists. --Erin Delmore Mr. Fernholz,

I’m upset to see the Voice, a paper that I read and respect, publish such an unsubstantiated and biased article about Dean Feinman Todd, whom I can attest is an invaluable asset to this university. As a senior English and Government double major, I have taken numerous journalism courses at Georgetown–two of which were taught by Dean Feinman Todd–to prepare me for a career in journalism. Thanks to the education I’ve received from her as well as a handful of outstanding adjunct professors (many, if not all of whom were hired by Dean Feinman Todd), I’ve secured highly competitive internships at NBC News, Rolling Stone Magazine, and New York City’s 1010 WINS news radio, as well as a PR firm and a Teaching Assistant position at the University. I credit a great deal of this to Dean Feinman Todd’s mentorship.

What I don’t understand is how you can call a journalism program that has afforded me so many outstanding opportunities “anemic.” I assure you it is anything but.

I expect more from the Voice. It is embarrassing for me as an undergraduate to see a student publication showing such utter disrespect for a person who has single-handedly been fighting for more classes, better professors, and more opportunities for us– Georgetown’s student journalists.
