Craig Greenham

Dr. Greenham is an award-winning, funded researcher whose focus is largely on North American professional sports – particularly baseball, hockey and Canadian football.  His analysis utilizes historical methods and includes aspects of media, political ideology and league/club operations.  Dr. Greenham’s objective is not to litigate the past but to explore issues and nuances that provide contextual perspective to current events.  Researching history allows narratives to be formed and reformed, bolstered and challenged.  In the lecture hall, Dr. Greenham relies on storytelling.  Students are encouraged to be active listeners and participants in the discussions to maximize their understanding and retention.  Dr. Greenham is accepting graduate students, particularly (but not solely) those interested in the thesis pathway that have a sociocultural/historical emphasis.
