Edward P. Morgan

My friends, family and colleagues know me as Ted Morgan. I grew up in South Hadley, Massachusetts, went to Oberlin College from 1964 to 1968 --a time that had considerable impact on my political perspective-- did my graduate work at Brandeis University from 1970 to 1975, taught for a year at Oberlin College (1975-76) and have been a professor of Political Science at Lehigh University since fall, 1976. While I have taught about 17 different classes at Lehigh, I have taught classes on Social Movements and Legacies of the 1960s, and Propaganda, Media, and American Politics for some 30 years. In recent years, I have taught a class on Organizing for Democracy. My writing and my teaching, as well as my active engagement in mostly local and regional issues, has been informed by my passionate belief in democracy --real democracy.
