Zibluk chosen as National Geographic Faculty Fellow

National Geographic has named Dr. Jack Zibluk as its Faculty Fellow for 2002.

Zibluk, an assistant professor of journalism, will spend nine weeks this summer at National Geographer's headquarters. He will become involved in all editorial stages of the magazine, including story selection, writing and editing and layout and design.
