If journalism is "storytelling with a purpose," then Dan Rather is perhaps one of the most well-known storytellers in a generation.
Rather shared stories in a lecture entitled, “What I’ve Learned from a Lifetime of Reporting” at the University of Louisiana at Monroe’s Presidential Lyceum
Series on April 19. He also spoke to a Master Class of students earlier that afternoon.

Honors Program Welcomes New Director
While some students are excited just to be going to college, a select group of students want to take their undergraduate experience to another level. The Honors Program at the University of Louisiana at Monroe works to offer that chance, with smaller classes, close interaction with faculty and extra challenges within class work.
