Knight Foundation for a project on new governance framework for data collected by digital platforms, smart devices, and smart city technologies. We asked Jasmine a few questions to learn more.

We ground our teaching in the liberal arts, preparing students not just for the jobs of today, but for the ever-changing media landscape of tomorrow. From the heart of a world-class university, we create critical thinkers, problem solvers, researchers and innovators.
