Coppee Hall
Built in 1883, this historic building was Lehigh's first gymnasium. The Department of Journalism and Communication moved into the building in 2003 after a $3.5 million renovation. |
I'm chairman of the Department of Journalism and Communication. I joined the faculty in 1978 after having been a reporter for The Columbus Dispatch newspaper. Since 1979, I've also worked for The Morning Call, an Allentown newspaper owned by Tribune, as a production editor.
I teach Editing, Publication Design, Feature Writing, News Writing and Reporting. I also serve as faculty adviser to our student newspaper, The Brown and White, a semi-weekly publication that was begun in 1894. Lehigh has offered a degree in journalism since 1927.
I'm interested in how technology is changing how we communicate and the effect this has on the role of the journalist. My educational background is in journalism, photography/photojournalism, and anthropology.
My interests outside of work include long-distance walking, which I've done in England, Wales, Ireland, Italy, France and Switzerland.
