The School of Communication Studies at Ohio University is dedicated to two propositions:  (1) teaching and research are equal partners in the making of a distinguished program of faculty and students; (2) collegiality and rigor can be fostered such that one does not play off against the other.  The School supports collaborative work in support of these propositions--faculty in the School work closely with each other and with students, both on teaching and research.  Individual faculty profiles are linked by the list on the left, and you are urged to explore them.  Take note of the many honors and awards the faculty have received for distinguished teaching and ground-breaking scholarship.  Feel free to contact any of the faculty directly with questions you might have about courses they teach, their research interests, office hours, etc.
