The Speaker’s Bureau* is a list of presenters on campus
including the subjects of their programs.
The media can use this list to find sources for stories
they are working on. Community groups can use the list to
find interesting speakers. Feel free to contact the individuals directly, or you may
contact the Public Relations Office to get
started utilizing our expertise.
You may choose from the
presenters below, scroll down to expert topics or contact the PR Office at 740.588.1565 and
we'll try to connect you with the appropriate faculty, staff or
administrator at the Zanesville campus who can comment. Or,
we'll direct you to the University's expert coordinator in
Communications and Marketing in Athens.
