We all experience fear at times in our lives. It’s a powerful force that impacts our decisions and actions. People fear a lot of things from heights and needles to being confined in a small space or public speaking.
And while you can probably limit your exposure to clowns, if that's a fear, public speaking is something you do all the time. Whether it’s a presentation in front of a small group or pitching an idea to someone, possessing public speaking skills is important.
At Marquette University, there's a new resource to support students' skills in this area. It's called The MIC Speakers Lab. It was started last fall by Tracey Sturgal, a faculty member in the Diederich College of Communication. Meredith Cavaleri, a junior studying digital media, has the story.
