WOMEN IN MEDIA

Hollins College will host a symposium on ``Women in the Media'' on Feb. 16 as part of its Founder's Day celebration.

Among the participants are alumnae Ann Compton, ABC News White House correspondent; Elizabeth Valk Long, president of Time magazine; Mary Bishop, reporter for the Roanoke Times & World-News; and Elizabeth Seydel Morgan, poet and screenwriter.

Founder's Day will culminate in an evening panel discussion by notable journalists, who will focus on the women who determine today's news and the issues they face.

There is no admission charge to the workshops, convocation, or panel discussion. Tickets and advance registration are required for the 7:30 p.m. panel discussion.

For more information, call 362-6451, 9 a.m.-4 p.m. weekdays.
