Our future graduate program in homeland security is getting attention from the news media

Both the Austin American-Statesman and the Bryan-College Station Eagle published stories this week on our proposed program, which Texas A&M regents approved last week. In short, we're looking to create an interdisciplinary master's program in homeland security within 18 months, followed by a doctoral program.

If you want to know more, here's our news release.

We're getting calls from other outlets. I'll post the results as they arrive.

Who I am and what I do

My name is Rusty Cawley. I am the communications specialist for homeland security at Texas A&M University. I provide public affairs counsel to:

The Integrative Center for Homeland Security (ICHS), which offers an online certificate in homeland security through the Bush School of Government and Public Service.
The National Center for Foreign Animal and Zoonotic Disease Defense (The FAZD Center), one of six Department of Homeland Security Centers of Excellence.
The Institute for Countermeasures Against Agricultural Bioterrorism (ICAB).

Previously, I was the director of media relations at Levenson and Hill in Dallas. Before that, I worked as a journalist for more than 20 years.

That said, there is absolutely no connection between any opinions expressed here, and those held by Texas A&M, the ICHS, the FAZD Center and ICAB. Unless attributed, consider any opinion found here to be mine alone.
