Journalism professor leaving

The University of Iowa announced Wednesday its appointment of David D. Perlmutter, a KU journalism professor, as the director of its School of Journalism and Mass Communications.

“I am confident David will maintain and enhance the scholarly profile of our school while ensuring that our professional journalism and mass communication programs continue to reflect the important changes taking place in media,” Linda Maxson, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Iowa said in a press release.

Perlmutter has also been named a CLAS Starch Faculty Fellow, which recognizes and supports the work of outstanding senior faculty whose research focuses on psychological issues related to communication.
