I have no idea how big of a position this is, but the fact that a hack like him holds any position of importance at a top 30 American University is something of a disgrace. Thankfully I'm not in a PPD or Comm major so this doesn't really devalue my degree any.
The class he teaches is Comm 499 (499 classes here are usually new upper division electives that haven't yet become permanent courses), and the syllabus can be found on the blog. Some of the topics sound kind of neat but most of it reads like a Slashdotter's comment history.
