 | Stella Ting-ToomeyStella Ting-Toomey, PhD, until her death in 2025, was Professor Emeritus of Human Communication Studies at California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), where she joined the faculty in 1989. She was passionate about teaching in the areas of intercultural communication theory and training and interpersonal conflict management. Dr. Ting-Toomey published 17 scholarly books and more than 120 articles and chapters, and delivered major keynote speeches on mindful intercultural communication in the United States and internationally. She also conducted a variety of intercultural conflict competence training workshops for corporations and nonprofit institutes. At CSUF, Dr. Ting-Toomey received the CSU Wang Family Excellence Award and the CSUF Outstanding Professor Award. Her sojourning and immigrant experiences—as an international student departing from Hong Kong and arriving at Iowa City, and from Iowa City to Seattle, and then from Seattle onward to New Brunswick, Tempe, and Fullerton—together with her daily contact with culturally diverse students at CSUF, enriched her theorizing and researching journey. |
