A Spectral Iterative Approach For Analyzing The Scattering Of Cylindrical Waves From One Dimensional Wire Gratings, James R. Dire Jan 1986

A Spectral Iterative Approach For Analyzing The Scattering Of Cylindrical Waves From One Dimensional Wire Gratings, James R. Dire

Retrospective Theses and Dissertations

The scattering of cylindrical waves, infinite in the axial direction, from a one dimensional infinite, planar, periodic array of wires is investigated. The cylindrical wavefront is divided into planar segments. Each planar segment is treated individually as an infinite plane wave incident upon the periodic structure. The reflection characteristics of each plane wave is determined by analyzing the electromagnetic scattered fields using the secant method to solve an iterative algorithm. The derivation of the method as applied to surfaces containing a one dimensional parallel thin wire grating is presented. The reflection coefficients for cylindrical waves are determined by combining the …

Administering The Small College Program: An Introduction, Bonnie Wilson Buzza Oct 1985

Administering The Small College Program: An Introduction, Bonnie Wilson Buzza

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This introductory essay outlines the emergence of a coordinated national effort to strengthen speech communication programs at small colleges. It contextualizes the 1985 curriculum conference at Hope College as a significant point in the ongoing development of these programs. The essay explains that earlier initiatives established a foundation of shared concerns and collaborative activity through committees, conferences, and informal professional networks. The 1985 meeting marks a transition toward more deliberate work on curriculum design, faculty development, scholarly engagement, and improved relationships between small college programs and graduate institutions that supply future faculty. The introduction further summarizes the structure of the …

Administrative Style And The Small College Context, Joseph W. Macdoniels Oct 1985

Administrative Style And The Small College Context, Joseph W. Macdoniels

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This essay examines the distinctive administrative challenges faced by leaders of small college communication programs and argues that prevailing managerial models are poorly suited to the values and structures of these institutions. It begins by distinguishing administration, management, and leadership, noting that contemporary higher education privileges managerial thinking oriented toward efficiency, control, and product driven outcomes. The discussion contends that this framework conflicts with the interpersonal, process oriented commitments of communication faculty and with the collegial traditions of small liberal arts colleges. The essay outlines the limitations of the management oriented model at the departmental level, where chairs are expected …

Departmental Administration Within The Small College Environment: Analysis And Extension, James E. Roever Oct 1985

Departmental Administration Within The Small College Environment: Analysis And Extension, James E. Roever

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This response essay evaluates preceding analyses of small college administration and extends their implications through a methodologically oriented lens. It begins by addressing the definitional challenges surrounding what constitutes a small department or small liberal arts college, noting that existing definitions remain imprecise and often subjective. Using Allan Tucker’s framework of chairperson responsibilities, the essay proposes a structured means of comparing administrative roles across institutional types. It then examines the claims raised in earlier papers, including the influence of managerial models, the limited authority of departmental leaders, the prevalence of informal communication networks, and the extensive teaching and service commitments …

Concerns, Questions, And Changes In Small Colleges, Dale M. Jackson

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This essay analyzes the distinctive concerns facing faculty and administrators at small liberal arts colleges and considers the curricular developments likely to shape the communication discipline through the remainder of the decade. It argues that although faculty share universal issues such as salaries, tenure, and job security, the small college environment introduces unique pressures. These include heavy teaching loads, broad course preparation, intensive committee work, and heightened student expectations generated by close faculty student interaction. Faculty also express anxiety over the expanding influence of vocational demands and the potential displacement of liberal education, even as they work to help students …

An Exploration Of Some Problems Confronting Speech Communication Faculty, Sandra Manheimer Oct 1985

An Exploration Of Some Problems Confronting Speech Communication Faculty, Sandra Manheimer

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This essay examines three persistent problem areas faced by speech communication faculty at small colleges that result from limited institutional resources. The analysis focuses first on the staffing of the basic communication course, noting that small institutions lack graduate teaching assistants and therefore must consider alternative instructional formats, technological delivery systems, undergraduate facilitators, part time instructors, communication across the curriculum initiatives, or the retraining of faculty from other disciplines. The essay then evaluates the challenges of offering upper level communication courses with low enrollments, particularly courses that require a minimum number of participants for effective skill development. It outlines strategies …
