Professional Bio

Philip Grayson is currently the interim Director of English Graduate Futures, the Penn State Department of English's graduate student career diversity initiative. He acted as the research assistant for this initiative from FA23-SP25.

His research tends to consider areas of overlap between rhetorical studies and the life sciences. For instance, his dissertation project considers whether rhetoric might be fruitfully understood as a form of echolocation and draws out epistemological, ethical, and pedagogical implications from that premise.
