History
The School of Communication was established as a separate unit of the University in 1985. It had previously been a department in the College of Arts and Sciences. In addition to its various degree programs, its responsibilities include the student newspaper the Miami Hurricane, the Ibis yearbook, the radio station WVUM, the Bill Cosford Cinema, and the UMTV cable system. In 2001 the various divisons of the School were able to move into one location in the new Frances L. Wolfson Building.
