Description: Dr. Lucila Vargas is a professor emerita at the School of Journalism and Media, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill who retired in 2016. She has 30 years of research and teaching experience in communication for social change. She is a Mexican immigrant and a first- generation college graduate who moved to San Antonio from Chihuahua state in Mexico to teach Spanish language and culture at an extension school of National University of Mexico. Although she had that first experience of teaching, she faced significant challenges in the classroom when she assumed her first full-time faculty position at Chapel Hill in 1994, mainly because there were no other Latinas, or other women of color who shared this experience of being a woman of color in front of the classroom. After her Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Austin, she taught media in the department of journalism at Bowling Green State University, but it was at University of North Carolina she came across an all-White classroom. She turned to research on diversity in higher education for assistance but found that most of the literature addressed student diversity, was intended for a White, and sometimes male, audience. She found some research on minority faculty members, it ignored the role of social differences other than gender. From then on this became her focus. Dr. Vargas received her master’s in Latin American studies and Ph.D. in Development Communication from the University of Texas at Austin and published her dissertation “Social Justice and Radio Practices, The Social Use of Radio by Ethnic Minorities in Mexico.”
