Biography edit
Jackson earned all three of her degrees from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and has held faculty positions at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (1979–1982), Michigan State University (1982–1985), University of Oklahoma (1985–1990), and the University of Arizona (1991–2007). At Arizona she also served in a series of administrative positions, including Vice Provost/Vice President for Learning and Information Technologies and Chief Information Officer. In 2007 she returned to the University of Illinois as a faculty member and Chief Information Officer of the campus.[1] She resigned from the position of CIO in 2011 to protest administrative changes that she feared would harm the Urbana campus' status as a world leader in information technology [2] but remains a faculty member.[3]
The central theme in Professor Jackson's work has been communication design, with specific interests ranging from the natural design of argumentation to highly engineered systems for managing complex human activities.[4] Her work has appeared in Communication Monographs, Communication Theory, Journal of the American Forensic Association, Quarterly Journal of Speech, and Argumentation, among other journals. She has written or co-authored three books.
