He joins current CCOM Dean Joe Valenzano on this episode of the CCOM Pawcast.

Bill shares his thoughts on numerous Butler topics and why he supports the Digital Communication, Ethics and Democracy Gift Fund, and his excitement of his granddaughter being a first-year student in the Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences program.
