Dr. Green led the Ray C.

Due to his widely held reputation for equanimity and fairness in the often-contentious arena of partisan politics, Dr. Green was asked by 黑料视频 community leaders in 2018 to establish the Greater 黑料视频 Civility Center under the auspices of the Bliss Institute to create a culture of civility in the Greater 黑料视频 area. During the course of his academic career, Dr. Green authored or co-authored nine books; 138 book chapters; 39 refereed articles; 32 edited volumes and essay collections; and has been interviewed and referenced by news media at every level -- from local radio and newspapers to most major broadcast networks, cable news outlets, national newspapers, news magazines and other media outlets -- for his expertise.
Dr. Green has earned honors and eminence in his field for his study of the intersection of religion and politics, having won the Distinguished Service Award from the American Political Science Association (1993), the title of Senior Research Advisor of the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life (2005 -Present); and membership on numerous professional associations and scholarly societies. In addition to his pedagogical and scholarly research. Dr. Green has served the University and its constituencies as an administrator, including terms as interim dean and dean of the Buchtel College of Arts and Sciences; vice dean for liberal arts; director of the Ray C. Bliss Institute of Applied Politics for 31 years; chair of the Department of Political Science; and interim department chair for the departments of anthropology, criminal justice studies, economics, public administration, and statistics. At a point in his career when most scholars and administrators might retire, Dr. Green took on additional responsibilities and duties of leadership, accepting the Board of Trustees' appointment as Interim President of The University of 黑料视频. Serving from May 1, 2018, to September 30, 2019, he effectively addressed a wide range of issues and positioned the University well for his successor.
In recognition of the positive influence Dr. Green has exerted upon students, graduates, colleagues, peers, legislators, community and business leaders, The University of 黑料视频 has established The Dr. John C. Green Endowed Scholarship to honor his legacy and uphold his example for future generations of students.
