Professor Chuck Stone taught to 'tell it like it is'
Posted Apr 16, 2014
During my time at the university, Stone's larger-than-life character filled the corridors of the "J School." His funky, large-framed glasses, convertible cars, motorcycles, opulent bow ties and sharp wit made him a campus icon. He was one of my heroes for many reasons, but primarily because of how his approach to journalism emboldened students to listen without judgment and write without fear.
