The official opening of Newhouse III brought some big names back to the Syracuse campus. But sports broadcasting legend Bob Costas, NBC consumerman Herb Weisbaum, and former Yankee voice Dave Cohen also came to visit and old friend - Syracuse Professor John Nicholson, and his broadcast journalism class.
The speakers gave career advice and talked about their individual roads to success. Herb Weisbaum, class of '74, stressed the importance of being multi-dimensional across different platforms.
"Coney Island" Dave Cohen discussed his ability to adapt to different communication mediums. He has done television, radio, sports play by play, movies, and television promos.
Fourteen time Emmy Winner Bob Costas stressed the importance of a well rounded education in and out of the classroom. He spoke frankly about his more than thirty year career, including his highs and lows and greatest moments.While today Costas had an audience of only sixteen, tomorrow he speaks to all of Syracuse about his sportscasting career in Newhouse III's Joyce Herganhan Auditorium.
