WEST WINDSOR – Kathryn Paluscio, Associate Professor of Communication at Mercer County Community College (MCCC), will meld levity with learning for MCCC’s upcoming Distinguished Lecture.
“Avoiding the Big Awk: How to Survive Small Talk in Social Situations,” will be the topic of Paluscio’s lecture at noon on Wednesday, April 20 in the Communications Building, Room 107, on the MCCC West Windsor Campus, 1200 Old Trenton Road. The lecture is free and open to the public.
As part of her presentation, Paluscio will answer the burning questions everyone has asked in social settings: Is there a science to successful small talk? What are the boundaries between being confident and being creepy? Is there a cure for the mildly awkward? Paluscio will impart a number of helpful concepts to remember, and simple strategies to practice, in our everyday lives when interacting with those not in our inner circle.
Prior to her tenure at MCCC, Paluscio taught Communication courses at Rider University, Kean University, Yardley Drama School, the New Jersey Department of Labor, AmeriCorps, and Edison Job Corps, to name a few. |
