Boston, MA – November 1, 2005 – Paul Lazoravich, an assistant professor of humanities at Wentworth, keeps himself busy with more than teaching.

“First off, I love baseball," says Lazarovich, “then oral communication, followed by performing."

Along with his life as an educator, Lazarovich is involved with a cable television show that’s been running since 1992, writes for and acts in television commercials, and serves as a tour guide for the Boston Red Sox.

“I really enjoy speaking to different audiences," the humanities professor confided.

The color red would dominate a pie chart of Paul’s personal interests. A tour guide at Fenway Park, a position he became interested in because of his life-long dedication to the Red Sox, Lazarovich enjoys relating his personal experiences with the fabled franchise to the numerous tourists who visit.

“I always add my personal stories of the ballpark to the tours," Lazarovich says. “The Red Sox provide us with a script, but I haven’t looked at it for years!"

The audiences of these tours, who hail from all over New England and other parts of the country as well, are witness to a Lazarovich devoted to the Red Sox. In turn, he serves the most dedicated fans in baseball.

“I’ve seen some interesting reactions," Lazarovich reveals. “As soon as they see the green monster, their eyes light up. I’ve seen senior citizens crying, people calling family on cell phones shouting, ‘You won’t believe where I am!’"

Despite working for vastly different organizations, Paul considers his work for the Red Sox closely related to his position at Wentworth.

“I hope to have the same effect at Fenway Park as I do in the classroom," explains Lazarovich. “I enjoy imparting knowledge to people."

Frequent visits to Fenway Park have become tradition in Lazarovich’s classes, and a joy to his many students.

“In my public relations course, I bring the students to Fenway Park. They speak with media people and the community relations folks," Lazarovich says. “The Red Sox organization is very good. In fact, the visits are so enjoyable, they attract students that aren’t in my classes!"

Lazarovich’s fan base extends beyond the Fenway area, with the center located in his hometown of Middleboro, Mass. He writes and stars in the television show, “Cranberry Country Journal," a show that addresses the public affairs of the Boston suburb.

The show, which has been running for thirteen years, airs twice per month. “Just enough time for everyone to grow tired of seeing me," Lazarovich jokes.

While a few may grow tried of Lazarovich on television, the same will never be true for the lessons he gives in class.

“I teach my kids to think about the messages thrown at them every day," he explains. “They have to be skeptical about everything they hear. This ideal will be handy when they become entrepreneurs."
