I am a doctoral candidate at Penn State, in the department of Speech
Communication with a minor in (cognitive) psychology. My main interest is in
the differing rhetorical stategies used in literate and oral cultures. That
leads me into rhetorical theory-building to accommodate both integrated/
global/implict cognitive processes and analytical/linear/explicit processes
favored by Western cultures. I also teach speech, usually with apprehensive,
ESL, or other students with "non-dominant" cognitive and communication styles.
