Scholarly Interests: Dr. McClure’s scholarly activities are primarily focused on analyzing communicative events in order to account for the potential influence and impact that these events may have politically, socially, or culturally. More specifically, his research involves developing and extending critical theories and methodologies for analyzing the dynamics of socio-cultural discourse with the intent of exploring the utility and extending and refining the applicability of those theories and methodologies. His focus on communication’s role in human affairs intersects with such disciplines as philosophy, literary criticism, politics, history, sociology, psychology, postmodernism, film, poetry, music and religion. Dr. McClure joined the faculty in 1996. He teaches courses in rhetoric, criticism, American public address, history of ideas, persuasion, and introduction to communication studies. |
