A Journalist for Three Decades
A little about my background and how I got to thinking about the power of the BiggerBrain or collective thinking.
Today I hold the Robert D. Fowler Distinguished Chair in Communication at Kennesaw State University. I became the first holder of the chair in August, 2002, after almost three decades as a journalist.
During those three decades, I was editor of the Minneapolis Star Tribune
As you might know, the Harnisch Foundation under the direction of Ruth Ann Harnisch gave us a substantial gift to start the Center for for Sustainable Journalism at Kennesaw State University. We are up and running. Keep abreast of what is happening at SustainableJournalism.org
