Adelman V. Paul: Showdown 2011

The somewhat infamous Assistant Professor of Communication Chris Paul (who specializes in digital communication and video gaming) and the infinitely infamous Associate Professor of Communication Mara Adelman (who teaches courses on solitude, cross-cultural communication, distraction and simplicity) had an all-out, never-the-twain-shall-meet, no-holds-barred, take-no-prisoners, Vegas-or-bust old-fashioned debate on the role of technology in our daily lives.
