Kim Cuny (Speaking Center director and Communication Studies faculty member) received the National Communication Association’s Turner Advocacy Award for her efforts to help build and sustain the Communication Center subset of the Communication Studies discipline.
Over the past 17 years, while Cuny worked to develop a national speaking center model here on our campus, she has also advocated for communication centers more broadly. Cuny was honored for promoting scholarship, advancing the standing of communication centers within the discipline & within the academe, and supporting the communication center movement across the nation. She also holds a School of Theatre faculty appointment and teaches in the MPA program at UNCG.
