Magdalena Wojcieszak
Having grown up in a communist Poland in a family of journalists, early in life Magdalena Wojcieszak (Voy-che-shack) – an Associate Professor at the Department of Communication–became acutely aware of the social and political importance of media and communication. Dr. Wojcieszak’s father would show her pages of the newspaper he worked for with entire lines missing (yes, propaganda and censorship!), and she remembers wondering what impact that missing sentence or paragraph could have on Polish citizens and the democratizing society.
