Dana Thomann

Associate Professor of Instruction, Rhetoric

I teach introductory Rhetoric courses at the University of Iowa. Working with students early in their college careers is exciting and extremely rewarding.

I was once a first-generation college student at the University of Iowa. During my first semester, imposter phenomenon wasted too much of my precious time. Feeling the same? (It’s quite normal.) Need a hype-person? I’m here!

Outside of the classroom, you’ll likely find me gardening on my family’s farm, reading, or cycling the Iowa River Trail in preparation for the Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa (RAGBRAI).
