Faculty Feats: Professors Burgess and Ho Presenting at Conferences

I’ve been showcasing student achievements for quite awhile now, and thought it was time to showcase our faculty! Our faculty have been busy inside and outside of the classroom, just as our students are.

Those of you in Professor Burgess or Professor Ho’s classes already know that they were away at academic conferences last week (no, they weren’t just taking a sick day!). Here are the details:

Professor Burgess attended the University of South Carolina Conference on Rhetorical Theory in Columbia, South Carolina. Her presentation was entitled “Emergencies on the Scene: The Time of a Rhetorical Ethics.” This conference, unlike some others, is a full time job! Only 30 professors attend and they have all day discussion sessions focused on their work. Congratulations to Professor Burgess!

Professor Ho attended the International Conference on Communication in Healthcare in Chicago and presented a poster called “Framing Diabetes as Control vs. Balance: Analyzing Diabetes Health Information for Chinese Americans.” Congratulations to Professor Ho on her presentation! Check out the picture of her posing with her poster below (which is now the newest piece of wall art in her office!):

Our faculty present their research at conferences throughout the year. Congrats to both Professor Burgess and Ho on their recent conferencing!
