Gisclair presents at
Popular Culture conference

Jessica Gisclair, an assistant professor in the School of Communications, and James Roux, an assistant professor of Communications Studies at Lynchburg College, presented a paper at the Popular Culture Association Conference, Asian Division, March 23 in San Diego.

The paper, titled "It is More Than Just Talk: A Communicators Style Analysis of Mainland Chinese and American Students," examines the verbal and paraverbal communication of students in an attempt to understand the style of communication used by a select group in a collectivist and individualist society. The findings offer a framework from which to compare Mainland Chinese and American students' communicator styles.
