Biography
Professor Behrens, who has been teaching at Utica College for 37 years, is the author of countless magazine articles and several books, including his latest, "The Big Band Days." He continues to teach magazine article writing and recently celebrated his 20th anniversary as a Reader's Digest Fellow, which entitled nearly students more than $20,000 to research and write stories.
"UC gave me the opportunity to develop as a writer, which is one of the most important skills you'll need when pursuing a career in journalism or public relations. Good writers go far. It's that simple. From the training I received in the classroom to the opportunity to work on the Tangerine, there is no question in my mind that UC helped me get where I am today."
