Cooper, O'Shea are
Senior Showcase stars

Two School of Communications students were among the 17 Elon University seniors invited to share their diverse talents, ranging from academic research to theatrical performances, during the 19th annual Senior Showcase May 21 in McCrary Theater. The event celebrates the academic achievement, leadership, talent and energy of this year's seniors.

Academic departments and staff members in the student life office nominated participants, and a committee of faculty and staff made the final selections.

Participating students included: Broadcast major Erin Cooper, who presented "Through the Looking Glass: Memories of a Tribe Almost Forgotten," a look at the Occaneechi tribe in a documentary film she helped Professor Ray Johnson produce; and Corporate Communications major Brian O'Shea, whose presentation "63 Days, 4,000 Miles" related the PR efforts he put forth for charity during the "Journey of Hope" cross-country bike trip during the summer of 2003.
