By Pamela Jean
Profile | March 3, 2010

On April 1st, the Kansas Free Press will mark its 6-month anniversary. With gratitude for the Kansans who nobly commit their time and talents to citizen journalism, we are celebrating our upcoming half-year anniversary by proudly showcasing each of our writers.

HAYS, Kan. - In this profile, we are honored to introduce KFP correspondent, Henry Schwaller, IV. He works in the department of management and marketing at Fort Hays State University, where he currently teaches principles of management, entrepreneurship, small business management and business, society, and ethics. His research interests include economic development and labor force issues. Henry received his Bachelor of Science in Business and MBA from the University of Kansas.

Henry was the primary author of Adult Basic Skills and the Kansas Workforce (Institute for Public Policy and Business Research, KU). He co-authored "Assessing Rural Student Entrepreneurial Capacity" with Dr. Mary Martin. The paper studies the entrepreneurial capacity of FHSU students and recommends specific university and community-based initiatives to encourage business start-ups and innovation.

Henry is President of Henry Schwaller and Associates, a real estate investment firm. He has also served as a city commissioner and mayor of the City of Hays in Kansas. He also writes at EverydayCitizen.com.

Henry welcomes you to view his historical archives here.
