This is spectacular news. This hire will further our mission to be the best program in the country for the study of political communication and public opinion. Lance's focal interests, including but not limited to his research on entertainment media and politics, will move us forward and create even greater opportunities for us to train the top students in the country. I couldn't be more thrilled with this news... chip

COPS,
Well, thank you for the kind welcome. I am honored to be joining your group, and I can not wait to get to Columbus to become a part of the intellectual energy you have already created within COPS. These are exciting times and I feel that we have much to look forward to in terms of our collective research and teaching efforts.
I will end my initial COPS post with a quote that I came across just last night. It sums up a great deal of what I think makes a scholar: "Research is to teaching as sin is to confession. Unless you participate in the former, you have very little to say in the latter!"
Go Buckeyes!
Lance
