Professor teaches selfie college course

Selfies are usually not allowed in class. But, for one lucky group of students, the selfies are now the course material at hand.

Eve Bottando, an Indiana University Northwest communications professor will explore selfies in a 400-level class this fall.

The class will discuss research being done on selfies as well as discuss when is an appropriate time to take a self?

And, Bottando isn't alone in her academic interest.

At the University of Southern California, one freshman class focused on what selfies say about our ethnic, gender, sexual and class identities.
