Mount St Mary’s adviser decries clash over student paper
Journalism professor Bill Lawbaugh, honored with the Golden Key by the Columbia Scholastic Press Advisers Association for advising the Mountain Echo, laments a yearlong dispute with Mount administrators over censorship and teaching integrity. Administrators say the newspaper’s gatekeeping is needed. Lawbaugh defends press freedom amid personal and family strain. The case includes a secret grievance outcome, staff dissent, and a bid to ordain him as a Catholic deacon, which Catholic authorities blocked amid the dispute.
