Format & Policies

Tuesday

Thursday

No formal required text, but students will be expected to report on agency trends weekly via sources such as AdWeek, AdAge, etc.

As a student and citizen of the Bucknell University community:

  1. I will not lie, cheat or steal in my academic endeavors.

  2. I will forthrightly oppose each and every instance of academic dishonesty.

  3. I will let my conscience guide my decision to communicate directly with any person or persons I believe to have been dishonest in academic work.

  4. I will let my conscience guide my decision on reporting breaches of academic integrity to the appropriate faculty or deans.

The MIDE Creative agency is intentionally designed to allow for experiential learning through student engagement and student-facilitated projects. This requires class participants to engage thoughtfully, and design much of how the agency works, what the agency does, and the policies that dictate interaction with clients and within the course itself.
