An article by Dr. John Fisher, assistant professor of communication, theatre and languages, was recently published in the journal “Competition Forum.”
The article, titled “Mass Media Impact on Post-Secondary Policy Making: A Case Study of a Failed Merger Attempt,” examines a proposed merger several years ago involving Northwest Missouri State University and the University of Missouri System. This fall, Fisher presented a paper on the same topic at a meeting of the American Society for Competitiveness.
In other academic activity, Fisher recently presented a paper titled “Native People and Systemic Bias in the Public Education System” at a meeting of the Midwest Association of Canadian Studies.
