In the Spotlight
Yahya Kamalipour is fascinated with the effects that media -- from advertising billboards to television programs to social websites -- have on modern culture. As professor of mass and internal communication and head of the Department of Communication and Creative Arts at Purdue Calumet, Kamalipour spends ample time studying the media and its influence on everyday life. Born in a small village in Iran before migrating to the U.S. in 1972, Kamalipour also is director of the Center for Global Studies, which is housed on the Calumet campus.
