Author: Constance Davis
I am a comprehensive exams/dissertation advisor for Human Services, Public Service Leadership and Psychology. My background includes a Ph.D. in mass communication, an M.A. in journalism and a B.A. in sociology and mass communication with a minor in psychology. After a career on the news side of journalism (I once got to stop the presses), I began teaching and advising undergraduate and graduate students.
