We also wanted to provide students and faculty with a keynote address from one of the luminaries in the field of Communication Studies, starting with Dr. James Chesebro, then president of the Speech Communication Association, and including such important scholars as John Cragan, Judith Martin, Sonja Foss, Bruce Gronbek and many others.
