About Me

Mark Pollock
I teach courses in the rhetoric of the Cold War and the War on Terror, argumentation & advocacy, and social justice and communication at Loyola University Chicago. I'm a native Chicagoan, lucky enough to have been able to move back here to work and raise a family, and to cheer my White Sox on to the first World Series championship in far too long.
