A Matter Of Choice, Frank E. X. Dance
A Matter Of Choice, Frank E. X. Dance
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay advances a theoretical argument linking liberal education to the human capacity for symbolic choice. It begins by contrasting the restrictive condition of slavery with the freedom made possible through intentional decision making, framing liberal education as a process that fosters autonomy rather than vocational preparation. The discussion traces the historical emergence of symbolic capacity as the defining feature of human communication, distinguishing symbols from signs and emphasizing the role of spoken language in enabling decentering from immediate circumstance. Through this process, individuals develop self awareness, the ability to conceptualize alternatives, and the capacity for deliberate choice. The essay …
Speech/Language Pathology And Audiology: A Justifiable Anomaly Within A College Of Arts And Sciences?, Fred D. Minifie
Speech/Language Pathology And Audiology: A Justifiable Anomaly Within A College Of Arts And Sciences?, Fred D. Minifie
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay defends the place of speech language pathology and audiology within colleges of arts and sciences by arguing that the discipline’s academic legitimacy derives from its scientific study of human communication rather than its professional training functions. The author traces tensions between broad liberal arts missions and programs perceived as narrowly vocational, noting that clinical training alone cannot justify departmental status in a university setting. Instead, the field’s essential contribution lies in advancing knowledge about normal and disordered communication and in grounding clinical practice in research based understanding. The discussion critiques programs that emphasize service delivery at the expense …

The Ideal Chair: Appropriate And Inappropriate Uses Of Power, Robert S. Goyer
The Ideal Chair: Appropriate And Inappropriate Uses Of Power, Robert S. Goyer
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article analyzes how an academic department chair may employ power in ways that advance or hinder departmental goals. It defines inappropriate uses of power as actions that serve personal interests or undermine institutional purposes, and it highlights abdication of responsibility as another form of misuse. The discussion then turns to appropriate uses of power, beginning with definitional considerations drawn from social psychology and organizational theory. Power is conceptualized as the demonstrated capacity to effect change, derived from both formal authority and personal characteristics. The article surveys classic bases of social power and examines how assigned authority, positional status, and …
A Department Chair Interprets The Roles And Powers Of The Ideal Dean, Lloyd F. Bitzer
A Department Chair Interprets The Roles And Powers Of The Ideal Dean, Lloyd F. Bitzer
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article presents a department chair’s perspective on the powers and responsibilities of the ideal dean, emphasizing the influence a dean exerts through decisions affecting budgets, resources, and personnel. It argues that these powers shape a department’s programs, priorities, and long term vitality, making the dean’s role both consequential and potentially dangerous if exercised without wisdom and moral discipline. The ideal dean is described as one who holds limited but sufficient authority, whose decisions reflect institutional norms, and who avoids overreach or violations of established procedures. Problems arise either when the dean exceeds legitimate authority or when decisions, though formally …

A Nation At Risk: One Year After, R. R. Allen
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article examines the impact of the National Commission on Excellence in Education’s report on the perceived decline in American educational quality. It begins by noting the unusual public visibility achieved by the report and reviews the indicators of national risk identified by the Commission, including declining achievement scores, functional illiteracy among adolescents, and widespread remedial instruction across higher education, the military, and industry. The article then surveys potential causes of this decline, ranging from weak graduation and admissions requirements to inadequate teacher preparation, poor instructional materials, insufficient parental support, and diminished professional morale. The discussion shifts to the responsibilities …
