Robert W. Vivian
Department of Journalism
1993
"Bob
was a vital contributor to my college education. He went above and
beyond the call of duty in his advising role. Bob approached each of
my visits with enthusiasm, dedication, and professionalism. He was
consistently accessible for advising and always seemed to know the
correct tact to help me reach my educational and professional
goals.
Not only
did Bob provide a sound infrastructure from which to base my college
education, he also instilled in me the importance of life-long
learning and growth.
I never
have met a person with a better combination of talents than Bob. His
people skills are trementdous. He is warm, friendly, sensitive and
has an excellent sense of humor. Bob possesses a genuine desire to be
of assistance to his advisees."

"More
than just a professor, Bob has become known as a caring, warm advisor
to scores of students. When I met Bob, I was impressed with how easy
it was to talk to him. Bob puts students at ease even during the most
stressful times. . . He isn't a professor held up on a pedestal.
Instead, Bob is someone who is always there for the students, and he
truly cares about them."

Jang
Account Executive
"His
knowledge of the coursework needed for a career in public relations
extends beyond the college catalog to trends and changes that
continue to take place in the field. He is not only concerned about
the need for the public relations option to keep up with these
trends, he is actively committed to making these changes happen. As
the faculty advisor for the Chico Chapter of IABC (International
Association of Business Communicators), he is instrumental in the
development of many students, not just his advisees, in the College
of Communications. He is well known and respected among his
colleagues and the students at Chico State."
