SHSU 'In the News'

Brian Domitrovic, assistant professor of history, was part of a panel that discussed the decline of the dollar and how to fix it on the Oct. 22 episode of CNBC's The Kudlow Report. Following the segment, Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who also appeared on the show, plugged Domitrovic's book Econoclasts. In addition, he was one of the experts who discussed the gross domestic product in a recent Public Radio International story.

Voices From Death Row, compiled and edited by Paul Ruffin's 2008 Editing/Publishing class is the subject of an article and video by Voice of America, a multimedia international broadcasting service funded by the U.S. government.
