Pauly, a communications professor at St. Louis University is moving to Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin where he will be dean of the J. William and Mary Diederich College of Communication and the William R. Burleigh and E. W. Scripps Professor. Pauly will be responsible for the academic and administrative leadership of the college, which will benefit in the coming years from a gift of $28 million from alumni J. William and Mary Diederich.
