In the Media: McWhorter

Alum John McWhorter (Ph.D. '93), Associate Professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University, was featured in an article in the December 20 issue of the Stanford Magazine, titled "Word Nerd."

On Twitter, McWhorter commented: Wow! ⁦@stanfordmag⁩ did a profile of me (I did my doctoral work there) that precisely gets what I am and am not. That's understandably been rare for me in pieces like this. I am, dammit, touched!
