William J. Joel, PhD, WCSU, Center for Graphics Research
Dr. Joel received his doctorate in Computer and Information Sciences from Syracuse University in 1995. His thesis focused on a conceptual model that showed how computer animation is a direct outgrowth of more traditional techniques, and how the two can be represented by the same mathematical model. Currently, he is both Chair of the Computer Science Department, and Director of the Center for Graphics Research, both at Western Connecticut State University. His current interests lie in creating animations that have the look and feel of traditional 2D media such as woodcuts and stained glass.

Thom has his Ph.D. from UC Berkeley in Information Studies, taught at Indiana University in Telecommunications from 1997 until 2009.
