I am applying for grad programs in media studies.
I have some experience in media production and a film I made was in a festival. I flew across the country to attend the festival--I was invited and scheduled to speak on a panel of filmmakers--but the organizers messed up and I never got to do my talk/Q&A. Should I include this speaking occasion as a line on my CV?
Note: It wouldn't be in the same section as academic conferences. It would be under "speaking occasions," which are my less formal talks.
A similar note: I was hired to teach at a community college. Long story unexplained, in the middle of the semester, the department asked me to step down from my teaching position and resume it the following semester. Should I include this job on my CV? (I never went back the following semester)
Thanks a lot...delicate and somewhat embarrassing issues. This forum rocks.
