Walter Ong
Walter Ong was a scholar with a master’s degree in English who was once a student of McLuhan at the Saint Louis University. The contributions of Ong standardized and gave creditability to the field of Media Ecology as an academic study that’s worth scholarship.

The studies of Ong have contributed greatly towards developing the concept of Media Ecology. Ong has written over 450 publications, many of which focused on the relation between conscious behavior and the evolution of the media, and he received the Media Ecology Association's Walter Benjamin Award for Outstanding Article for his paper, "Digitization Ancient and Modern: Beginnings of Writing and Today's Computers".
