DJ Nogalski


Hey, hey. My name is DJ Nogalski, a senior majoring in journalism and strategic communication. Originally from Franklin, Wis., I came to UW-Madison having no idea what I wanted to do. After exploring various life-affirming opportunities for self reflection and growth on campus - Student Ambassadors, AdClub, internships, The Daily Cardinal, etc - I still don't have a very good idea of what I want to do. Maybe public relations? Advertising? Politics?

Anyway, I'm extremely excited for this class. The vast impacts and pure existence of the internet largely define our generation - we are, after all, digital natives.

Beyond the classroom, I'm interested in blogging, social media, advertising, long boarding, snowboarding, working out and binge-watching TV shows. I've been, or currently am, obsessed with the following series: Six Feet Under, Californication, Dexter, The Sopranos, Friday Night Lights, Entourage and It's Always Sunny. Finally, I enjoy making up random hashtags on Twitter #isthisweirdorcool?.

Looking forward to a great semester and getting to know all of you!

Hi, from your TA!


Hi, I'm Danny, your TA for CA346 discussion section. I'm really looking forward to getting to know all of you and I think it should be a great semester. What's not to love about a class about the internet? I hope you have a good time and/or learn some stuff-- hopefully both, that's the plan at least. As for me, I'm researching internet law and policy and I like cycling, good food, indie music, and my hometown college football team (ask me if you want to know, but, sorry, it's not the Badgers...). That's all for now-- see you all in section!

Welcome to CA346

Hi folks! Thought I'd post a quick introduction while I'm setting up your section blog. I'm Liz, I'm your lecturer, and I'm really excited about teaching this course! I've added some new stuff about social networks and online celebrity, and I think you'll really like the practicum project options.

On a more personal note, my research is on internet media and disability, and I like running, cats, watching MTV, and I am totally addicted to my Twitter feed.

See you soon!
