Tom Fiedler has been named dean of Boston University's College of Communication. "I cannot tell you how thrilled I am about this," says Fiedler, 62. "It was at [the school] that I learned the skills that set me off on a career in journalism and gave me the appreciation of what that profession meant." He received a master's degree in journalism from Boston U. in 1971.
