Communication And Fund Raising: It Is More Than Talking Well, Roger Smitter Oct 1986

Communication And Fund Raising: It Is More Than Talking Well, Roger Smitter

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This reflective essay analyzes the intersection of communication theory and professional fund raising through the author’s experience as a college development officer. Drawing on eighteen months of practical work, the discussion demonstrates how principles of speech communication, particularly persuasion, audience analysis, credibility, and listening, translate directly into the context of institutional advancement. The author argues that while communication training provides an essential foundation for fund raising, the profession’s results oriented nature forces a shift from theoretical reflection to applied strategy. The essay identifies parallels between rhetorical concepts and the practical demands of prospect research, donor relations, and collaborative teamwork. It …

The Down-Side Of Internships: A Clash Between The Academic And Professional Communities, Robert Abelman Oct 1986

The Down-Side Of Internships: A Clash Between The Academic And Professional Communities, Robert Abelman

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines structural tensions in internship programs that arise from divergent expectations held by universities and host organizations. Using four years of program administration at Cleveland State University, the analysis differentiates internship ecologies across three settings. Nonprofit agencies often treat interns as supplemental labor with limited supervision. Small profit centered firms tend to equate internships with paying dues and expand responsibility only after extra hours and routine tasks. Large corporations frequently restrict interns to observation due to policy or union constraints. The article argues that educational value depends on active oversight by faculty through a three part framework of …

The Concept Of A School Of Communication, John Lee Jellicorse Aug 1986

The Concept Of A School Of Communication, John Lee Jellicorse

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This essay traces the historical development of the communication disciplines and argues for the reintegration of their fragmented academic structures into unified schools of communication. Beginning with the rhetorical traditions of antiquity, it outlines the evolution of oral discourse education through the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, highlighting key moments such as the elocutionary movement, the separation of speech from English departments, and the emergence of specialized areas including theatre, mass communication, communication disorders, and rhetoric. The analysis attributes administrative fragmentation to uneven disciplinary growth and institutional politics, which produced inefficiency and weakened the field’s collective influence. Drawing on examples from …

How Vital Is The Basic Course In The 1980'S?, James W. Gibson, Michael S. Hanna Aug 1986

How Vital Is The Basic Course In The 1980'S?, James W. Gibson, Michael S. Hanna

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This empirical study examines the status and trends of the basic course in speech communication across U.S. colleges and universities during the mid-1980s. Drawing on survey data from 552 institutions, the analysis assesses enrollment patterns, instructional practices, faculty assignments, credit hour production, administrative support, and competition from other academic units. The findings indicate that the public speaking orientation remains the dominant model for the basic course, followed by combination formats integrating interpersonal and small-group communication. Enrollment trends show overall stability or moderate growth, particularly at universities and mid-sized colleges, with smaller institutions experiencing minor declines. Class sizes remain small, typically …
