math communication

In the world of international everything can happen... even math comm.
Here's the story:

I was talking to a friend of mine yesterday. I’ve mentioned that I’ll graduate this May. She asked me what my degree would be. I’ve said MA in Journalism and Mass Communication with concentrating in PR and also I’ve added that I had truly believed that it would be just Mass Communication with concentration in PR. I was not really happy with the word “journalism,” because that implies in stereotypical way that I’m good at writing and not very good with numbers. I think I am the opposite. I love numbers and truly wanna do some marketing stuff.

My friend is also an international (misunderstanding may happen)… so after I’ve told her all this about numbers she asked whether my degree was in "Mass communication" or "Math communication." She was sure that it was math comm., since I’m good with numbers. Funny. But that kind of communication is that? Communication about limits, theory of probability or relations of triangle’s sides? Communication to whom? To the ones who hate math?... Math promotion? Nevertheless… interesting opportunity. Isn’t it like those ads around Atlanta area promoting science as a good path for the kids?
