A note from our professora

Ciao Tutti!
I am sorry that I haven't posted sooner but, it's been a bit busy as the group faculty leader and, I think the students have been doing a great job of keeping you posted on our activities. Following just three days of activities and site visits we have many things to inform our discussions about the social processes of globalization and connections to sport.
The students are in their second Italian class following a great presentation by Emily and Austin this morning entitled: Examining Elite Sport Representation in Social Media: Conceptualizing Twitter. They will present their research at the European Sport Sociology Conference in Rome in two days. We are going to Florence without them but proud that they will represent the University of Minnesota at such a wonderful academic conference. They will join us in Treviso. Kudos also to Austin for all of her work in setting up our social networking with you.
Almost the end of class so I must say Ciao for now.


Buona Giornata!

Jo Ann Buysse, Ph.D

  1. Jo! Good to see you post and sounds like you are all having fun. I hadn't seen you in any pics yet, so was hoping the students hadn't gone wild and gone off the itinerary on their own. Have a glass of Chianti for me! Ciao. Nicole
