She is the founder of the Department of Communication and served as its first Chairperson, the founder of the department’s Speech Forum, and a co-founder of the department’s “Communication Week.” Professor Ige also established the department’s first Internship Program, created a capstone class to prepare students for work after graduation, and was instrumental in establishing an African American Student Scholarship in an effort to increase retention in Gary, IN and other surrounding communities.
