Joe Valenzano, Dean of CCOM, announces the 80 for 80 campaign in honor of Dr. William W. Neher and Dr. David H. Waite.

Starting on Monday, Dec. 9, for the next 80 days (until March 1!) we’re asking for your help continuing the vital work Dr. Neher and Dr. Waite inspired.

Play your part in raising "80 for 80" as we seek 80 gifts to celebrate year 80 for both of these amazing Bulldogs! Gifts can be directed to two important initiatives that reflect their passions and impact:

Digital Communication, Ethics, and Democracy Gift Fund

The Digital Communication, Ethics, and Democracy Fund supports the development and ongoing operations of an interdisciplinary, cutting-edge laboratory where students and faculty can monitor and analyze conversation across social media platforms and explore the usages of artificial intelligence in industry and society, opening the door for teaching, learning, research, and partnership opportunities.

David H. and Virginia M. Waite Scholarship

Established in 1994, by friends, former students and colleagues to honor both David H. and Virginia M. Waite. This scholarship provides financial support to communication studies students who are selected on the basis of professional goals, academic achievement and personal characteristics, with the objective of providing awards to applicants who have independent spirits and demonstrate outstanding potential to be effective communicators. Recipients are selected by the Department of Communication Studies and the Office of Financial Aid. Dr. David H. Waite, a professor of speech at Butler and former department head, is nationally acclaimed for his expertise in communication studies and semiotics.
