50@50: Lillian Lodge Kopenhaver reunites with former student


To celebrate the university’s 50th anniversary, FIU News is sharing 50 moments in FIU’s history as part of our “50@50″ series.

School of Journalism & Mass Communication Dean Emeritus and Professor Lillian Kopenhaver, who established the Center for the Advancement of Women in Communication in 2012, asked one of her former students to speak at a webinar that the Center was hosting.

Kopenhaver was surprised when the student remembered how a class she took with her almost three decades earlier had changed her life and led her on a path to success.
