As the holder of the Francis Schaeffer chair, Dr. Mohler will give a series of lectures to the World Journalism Institute students at its multi-week course on convergence journalism in May in New York. This will be the second series of lectures by Dr. Mohler to WJI students. Prior to being elected president of Southern Seminary in 1993, Mohler served as editor for The Christian Index, the Baptist newspaper of Georgia.
