Another thing the subjects all share is that they have relocated from the U.S. to Toronto since President Donald Trump first emerged on the American political scene. \"We\u2019re lucky to have them,\" wrote the magazine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Robert Gehl, associate professor, Communication &amp; Media Studies, LA&amp;PS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Compelled by the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol and, 17 months later, the U.S. Supreme Court's reversal on Roe v. Wade, Professor Robert Gehl and his family considered their options. As a Fulbright Scholar, Gehl had spent time in Calgary and had met a small network of Canadian academics in media and communications, including alumni from York. \"There\u2019s a critical edge to the Canadian understanding of media,\" <a href=\"https:\/\/torontolife.com\/city\/between-the-capitol-riot-and-the-supreme-court-overturning-roe-v-wade-i-knew-i-had-to-leave-louisiana\/\">Gehl told <em>Toronto Life<\/em><\/a>. \"There are several reasons for that \u2014 an obvious one is Canada\u2019s relationship to the U.S. media machine. There\u2019s a long history of Canadian work in the field, going back to Marshall McLuhan.\" Given his area of study, the move to Toronto and York felt natural.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>I think Toronto media studies is the best in the world, and being part of it is so cool.<\/p>\n<cite>Robert Gehl, associate professor of communication and media studies<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Gehl, who is the Ontario Research Chair in Digital Governance for Social Justice at York, has long studied activist-run alternative social media platforms and has a forthcoming book about the subject. \"This area of research was lonely work for many years \u2014 I\u2019m one of the few people in the world who have extensively studied it,\" he told the magazine,\" but younger scholars are getting involved now, and I\u2019m fostering that.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jack Rozdilsky, associate professor, Disaster and Emergency Management, LA&amp;PS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After President Trump secured the Republican nomination in 2016, Professor Jack Rozdilsky applied to York. \"It was clear that dark clouds were gathering,\" <a href=\"https:\/\/torontolife.com\/city\/disaster-management-professor-jack-rozdilsky-on-leaving-trumps-america\/\">he told <em>Toronto Life<\/em> magazine<\/a>. He moved to Toronto three months before Trump was elected. Since then, he's watched from afar the impacts of Trump's first and, now, second term affect his field. \"Recently, there\u2019s been talk of gutting FEMA, which would be disastrous for public safety,\" he tells the mag. At York, he can focus on building a better, more resilient future for his field through education and advocacy, he said. Through his contributions to <a href=\"https:\/\/theconversation.com\/profiles\/jack-l-rozdilsky-469071\/articles\"><em>The Conversation Canada<\/em><\/a>, his ideas and research have also found a larger audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, there's always more work to do. \"Emergency management isn\u2019t just about preparing for rare worst-case scenarios \u2014 it\u2019s becoming part of everyday life,\" he told the magazine. \"This fall, York is launching Canada\u2019s first PhD program in disaster and emergency management, a clear sign of how rapidly the field is expanding. The academic interest reflects a broader reality: disasters are happening more often.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>I\u2019m helping to train the next generation of emergency managers, people who will go on to work in policing, fire services and public safety<\/p>\n<cite>Jack Rozdilsky, associate professor of disaster and emergency management<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>This week, Rozdilsky is back stateside to present on concert safety and security at a Taylor Swift symposium alongside York grad student Talia Shortt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Anne Sullivan, assistant professor, Computational Arts, AMPD<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Professor Anne Sullivan was teaching at Georgia Tech when Trump-aligned state representatives in Congress asked public universities to provide them with the names of everyone who worked on a DEI committee, did research in or taught DEI, or was affected by DEI measures. Sullivan, who was doing research in social justice and DEI storytelling in games, found herself on that list. \"It eventually became clear that funding for my work could be reduced or even eliminated,\" <a href=\"https:\/\/torontolife.com\/city\/professor-anne-sullivan-on-leaving-georgia-for-york-university\/\">Sullivan told <em>Toronto Life<\/em> magazine<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, last year, she received an email from a recruiter at York. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/research\/connected-minds\/\">Connected Minds<\/a> research-enhanced appointment was \"an unheard of perfect fit,\" said Sullivan. \"In games, we would call this an 'uninteresting decision' \u2014 the right choice was obvious!\" Sullivan started at York in January, and, while still new to the city, is excited by its promise and potential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"Toronto should be a hub for gaming talent of all kinds \u2014 it\u2019s one of the most multicultural places in the world, and there\u2019s a very active indie game development community here. So we\u2019re uniquely well situated to become a global leader by leveraging the strengths the city already has,\" Sullivan told the magazine. \"Gaming attracts consumers of different ages, genders, ethnicities and backgrounds, but the industry itself is typically dominated by creators who are white and male. Our department\u2019s faculty at York is diverse, and one of my goals is to encourage more women and people from underrepresented backgrounds to study gaming and work in the field.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>My belief in equity wasn\u2019t something I could easily shut off or hide<\/p>\n<cite>Anne Sullivan, assistant professor of computational arts<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Since arriving at York, Sullivan has begun a research project on civic engagement among younger generations, exploring how elements of game design can be used to promote political discussions, community involvement, and voting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Professors Anne Sullivan,
