Thomas Joseph (Joe) Scanlon (2 January 1933 – 2 May 2015) was a Canadian professor of journalism, and a scholar of disasters.[1]
Scanlon was a reporter with the Toronto Star in the late 1950s and early 1960s, reporting from Toronto, Washington, and Ottawa. He subsequently taught journalism at Carleton University's School of Journalism and Communication, in Ottawa, from 1965 to 1995. He was the school's second director from 1966 to 1973.
In the 1960s, while studying political science, Scanlon became interested in the interpersonal spread of information during dramatic events. In the early 1970s, he established the Emergency Communications Research Unit (ECRU) at Carleton University, in Ottawa. Supported by an on-call team of journalism students, for two decades Scanlon led field studies of incidents and disasters across Canada with a view to understanding information flow. He went on to an international career studying the sociology of disaster, to include mass casualties and pandemics.
In 2002, the International Sociological Association's Research Committee on Disasters awarded Scanlon its Charles E. Fritz Award for Career Achievements in the Social Science Disaster Area, which is bestowed every four years at the ISA's World Congress.[2]
Having achieved the status of full professor, he was designated professor emeritus after retirement.
