WCC Executive Director Presents at the 2019 National Communication Association Convention, Earns Award

Kevin Dvorak, Ph.D., Professor and Executive Director of the NSU Writing and Communication Center, presented at the 2019 National Communication Association Convention in Baltimore, November 14-17, 2019. Dvorak presented with colleagues from the University of North Carolina – Greensboro, University of Central Florida, Bellarmine University, and Eastern Kentucky University. Their presentation, entitled “Communication Center as Strategic Partner: Reducing Barriers, Promoting Interdisciplinary Research, and Fostering Best Practices,” earned the 2019 Top-Ranked Paper for the Communication Centers Section of the NCA.

This presentation was based on an article that was published in the 2019 issue of the Carolinas Communication Annual. The article provides readers with 10 best practices for developing and managing university-based communication centers. According to Dvorak, “the conference provided us with a great way to connect with other communication center directors and to discuss new technologies and pedagogies we should be incorporating into our work to meet the evolving needs of our students.”
