I later moved on to edit newspapers in Washington and California before getting a journalism Ph.D at U. of Missouri. I have retired from both the Univ. of Maryland and Univ. I spent 20 years in higher education but had other good experiences working with media folks in Washington, D.C. and trekking to South Africa with some of them before Nelson Mandela came to power. Now I serve as an ODE director until my wife Sally McMillan finishes her Ph.D. here next summer. Then we're off to Cairo, Boston, or wherever opportunity beckons.
Journalism provides an int eresting life.
I worked for The Emerald from 1962-65. It was an excellent introduction into the dysfunctional nature of newspaper management. I learned recently that John Hulteng died of cancer at age 74. Some of you may remember him as a professor and dean during the 1960s and early 70s. It was a privilege to have been his student.
