Michelle Morgan, Assistant Professor in the History Department, recently had a chapter published in a book entitled “American Education in Popular Media, From the Blackboard to the Silver Screen”. This book examines how popular media including mass magazines, radio, film, and television have represented schooling in the United States over the course of the twentieth century. Historical essays explore prevalent portrayals of students and professional educators while addressing contested purposes of schooling in American society.
Her chapter is: “A Touch of Risquity”: Teachers, Perception, and Popular Culture in the Progressive Era. Congratulations Michelle!
