WAYNE, NJ — A lecture by NPR host Terry Gross at William Paterson University has been canceled due to a family emergency, the university said.

Gross, the executive producer and longtime host of "Fresh Air," was scheduled to appear on Thursday as part of the university's Distinguished Lecturer Series.

People who purchased tickets will be fully refunded through the original payment method, the university said. Those who used a method other than a credit card will be contacted separately.
