I was lucky enough to take my Intro to COM Writing course with Susan Blau. It was a little weird because (like many professors who have written textbooks) she would say things in class that were word for word out of the book. Despite that, she was one of the most helpful COM professors I've had.
I would highly recommend this book (and the course, if you go to BU) to anyone who wants to go into Communications, but you're not quite sure what your strengths are.

I would've given it a 1 star for its outdated information, but it earned a star back because there were some parts that were actually very helpful. The MLA/APA formatting section in the back is excellent.
