Dr. Millhous is a scholar of organizational communication, intercultural communication, and small group communication. Over the summer I worked on two exciting projects. The first project is to develop a survey instrument that measures self-efficacy for public speaking. Ideally this instrument would be sensitive enough to detect changes in a person's confidence for public speaking in the short term. I hope to have a beta version available on the web at some point this year. My second project is a textbook on event planning from a communication perspective. I am also coordinating student poster sessions for the Eastern Communication Convention in April. As always, I welcome student collaborators who might be interested in working on these projects! Stop in my office.

During the 2009-2010 school year I will be teaching upper level courses in the Fall (Organizational Communication and Seminar on Event Planning) and intro-level courses in the Spring (Com Research and Business & Professional Com).

Dr. Millhous holds a B.A. from Macalester College, and an M.A. and Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota. At WCU she teaches and advises for both Communication Studies and Women's Studies. She is also the program coordinator for the Leadership for Women MSA program. She joined the faculty of West Chester University in 1999.
