| Established in 1994, the Dr. N.N. Oweida Lecture
in Journalism Ethics is supported by an endowment from Margaret
L. Oweida in memory of her husband, the late Dr. N.N. Oweida, a
surgeon from New Kensington, Pennsylvania. The lecture focuses on
journalism ethics, and previous visitors for the lecture have focused
on theoretical and practical challenges that face journalists every
day in regard to ethics.
