Week # 4-Prompted Post

Communication Activity
I took part in an on campus, communication survey last Friday. I headed over to the Communication Arts and Sciences building early in the morning not entirely sure what to expect. Once I got there I meet with two other girls who were communication majors. The three of us were immediately taken back to the survey room by a man named Mr. Manata. He explained the survey we would participate in with his partner. They used clear  language to relay our directions. The entire event was well orchestrated and ran smoothly. In fact, the survey got out about 10 minutes early. 

The whole experience impressed me quite a bit. Due to the two instructor's promptness, I can assume they value organization.

 The interesting part of this prompt is to draw conclusions about their methods of communication. Going into the communication field, it only makes sense that most professionals are pretty good with communication. Firstly I'd like to note all communication prior to the survey was done over email. All three participants and two instructors were in the correct place, at the right time and date exactly. Clearly, great communication was used there. Further, I can infer we are all schedule oriented people. I can even go so far to stereotype and say that as a whole, people interested in communication are schedule oriented.Secondly, the directions given were extremely clear, although they were rather complex. Communicating these directions may have been difficult, however for the communication professionals it was made simple. I think it is fair to say communication professionals are good at communicating!
