Lionel Crocker, nationally known as a scholar, author, and teacher in the field of speech, chose to remain at a small liberal arts college for almost forty years instead of associating himself with a major university. This essay examines the reasons for Crocker's choice, his unconventional approach to teaching, and the basis for his profound impact on his students. Implications of his career for today's speech communication classroom are suggested. © 1986, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC. All rights reserved.
