Well, what we always knew about Jim Aune is now officially recognized by NCA: he embodies Emerson's Man-Thinking! Jim, alongside three other fabulous scholars, comprises the NCA 2008 class of Distinguished Scholars:

James A. Aune, Texas A & M University

Leslie A. Baxter, University of Iowa

Charles R. Berger, University of California, Davis

J. Michael Hogan, Pennsylvania State University

Distinguished Scholars are recognized for a lifetime of scholarly achievement in the study of human communication. Begun in 1991, the award is supported by the Mark L. Knapp Distinguished Scholar Fund. The Distinguished Scholars represent those scholars whom the Association would present to others to showcase our profession.

The four new Distinguished Scholars will be formally recognized at the 2008 NCA convention, during the Award Ceremony on Sunday evening, November 23, in the Manchester Ballroom of the Grand Hyatt Hotel, beginning at 6:30 pm.
