Employment Trends In Communication Arts And Sciences, Michael E. Smilowitz, Philip Emmert Jan 2000

Employment Trends In Communication Arts And Sciences, Michael E. Smilowitz, Philip Emmert

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

This article looks at the career opportunities for communication arts and sciences graduates in the U.S. As graduate students planning academic careers seek counsel for their programs of study, there is a need for good answers regarding career opportunities. Departments planning curricula and seeking to fill position vacancies likewise require reliable information regarding the directions in which their disciplines are moving. The analysis for curricula development, program growth, and career choices requires more than anecdotal evidence. Incidental conversations at conventions and the occasional reviews of the "state of the art" are helpful, but not adequate for considering concerns as important …

Departmental Excellence: Constituencies In Tension, Ronald C. Arnett, Janie M. Harden Fritz Jan 1999

Departmental Excellence: Constituencies In Tension, Ronald C. Arnett, Janie M. Harden Fritz

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

This article explores the question of departmental excellence within historicity and temporality and the political demands of multiple constituencies. If one accepts excellence as a rhetorical construct of political significance for a college campus, then one requires knowledge of the primary constituencies shaping this political debate. The eventual political outcome is shaped through the interplay of three constituencies: the discipline, the local campus and the larger public. The task for every department that wants to pursue excellence is to know, understand and operate within the hidden curriculum of a campus that socializes faculty to the ongoing mission of that particular …

Strategies For The Communications Unit: How Can We Become Central To The University And Its Mission?, Ellen Wartella Jan 1996

Strategies For The Communications Unit: How Can We Become Central To The University And Its Mission?, Ellen Wartella

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

This article presents the author's comments on reasons for the perception that communication units are not central to the University and its mission. First, our name itself is a problem. This can mean that one studies mass media, as I do, or it may refer to scholars of interpersonal communication, rhetorical analysis, cultural studies, organizational studies, or a variety of other subspecialties. Second, this lack of unity and intellectual diversity, often poses special political problems. The political battles across communication programs on campuses is only one of our on-campus political problems. Finally, perhaps at the root of our battles about …

Applying Communication Studies In Hong Kong, John Lee Jellicorse Jan 1994

Applying Communication Studies In Hong Kong, John Lee Jellicorse

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

The article discusses the trends in communication education in Hong Kong, China. Since communication is labor intensive, the need for personnel is swelling rapidly. Obviously, academic institutions in the region are faced with a tremendous challenge to encompass these developments. The School of Communication at Hong Kong Baptist is attempting to meet the challenge. Hong Kong Baptist College, then a small, private diploma granting institution funded primarily from tuition fees, initiated its first program in communication. During the crucial period of its maturation from a diploma program to a degree course, the communication curriculum at Hong Kong Baptist was administered …

Political Correctness--Correct?, Paul H. Boase Jan 1993

Political Correctness--Correct?, Paul H. Boase

Journal of the Association for Communication Administration

This article provides information on political correctness (PC). PC, as an expression, began years ago as something of a joke to describe communists who slavishly toed the party line. In the eyes of the right-wing anti-PC forces, this modern crusade toward multiculturalism sprang from the machinations of the 1968 campus radicals.

By framing ethical dilemmas as economic decisions, the article challenges administrators …

An Intradisciplinary Perspective, Multiple Methods Of Inquiry And Faculty Development - A Point Of View, John J. Makay, Mary Mohan Jan 1991

An Intradisciplinary Perspective, Multiple Methods Of Inquiry And Faculty Development - A Point Of View, John J. Makay, Mary Mohan

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article argues that effective faculty development in communication education requires an intradisciplinary perspective and mastery of multiple methods of inquiry. It critiques the trend toward interdisciplinary identity, urging scholars to center research within communication contexts while employing quantitative and qualitative approaches in concert. A model of intradisciplinary multi method inquiry is presented. The discussion considers technological change, shifting disciplinary boundaries, and the formation of scholarly teams as catalysts for continuous professional growth. By advocating literacy in diverse research traditions and collaborative inquiry, this article outlines a path that strengthens communication scholarship, enhances curricular relevance, and prepares faculty for emerging …
