“Is it 50 years since I drove for the first time west of the Hudson River to NU in my red Chevy Malibu convertible with 4 on the floor? One year at Medill grad school was more work than 4 years at Lehigh! Thanks to my beat partner, Kay Dollahan, without whom I couldn’t have survived Dick Hainey. Also, thanks to Psi Upsilon whose social diversions allowed me a respite from Medill’s other rigors. Finally, kudos to Abe Peck for his guiding the McAllister Fellowships over 35 years increasing the visibility of B2B media at Medill.”
