Conflict And Negotiation Courses In The Curricula, Fred E. Jandt Oct 1988

Conflict And Negotiation Courses In The Curricula, Fred E. Jandt

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article reports the results of a national survey on the presence of conflict and negotiation courses in communication curricula. Questionnaires were distributed to four-year and graduate institutions, with findings showing that over twenty percent offered at least one course in the area, and a smaller number offered two or more. Most courses were located in departments of speech or communication, were upper-division or graduate electives, and were introduced primarily in the late 1970s and 1980s. Enrollments averaged around twenty to thirty students per section, and demand was expected to grow. Faculty teaching these courses were most often tenured or …

An Investigation Of Articles Produced In The Communication Discipline By Institution: A Journal By Journal, Year By Year Analysis, Vernon O. Ray, Kittie W. Watson, Larry L. Barker, Robert N. Hall

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article presents a year-by-year and journal-by-journal analysis of article production in the communication discipline from 1980 to 1985. The study builds on earlier research identifying the fifty most productive institutions and examines both the number of articles produced annually and the distribution of publications across eleven major journals. Co-authorship was accounted for by dividing credit among authors’ institutions. Results show that top-ranked institutions maintained steady levels of publication, while lower-ranked institutions fluctuated more significantly in output. The analysis highlights trends in journal preferences among institutions and considers how editorial affiliations may influence publishing patterns. Although the study focuses on …


Developing An Extended Degree Program, Keith A. Miller Oct 1988

Developing An Extended Degree Program, Keith A. Miller

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines the development of extended degree programs designed to serve nontraditional students who are often older, employed, and unable to attend traditional campuses. It highlights the unique needs of adult learners, such as balancing multiple responsibilities, valuing practical application, and bringing significant life experience to their studies. The discussion outlines the philosophical and structural foundations of extended programs, noting that they must represent more than simply relocating a campus curriculum. Various administrative structures, curricular models, and program elements are reviewed, including flexible scheduling, credit for prior learning, and integration of community resources. Key considerations include faculty readiness, institutional …

Mccarthyism Here We Come Again, Paul Antonie Distler Aug 1988

Mccarthyism Here We Come Again, Paul Antonie Distler

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article analyzes the origins, goals, and strategies of Accuracy in Academia (AIA), a conservative organization that emerged in the mid-1980s as an outgrowth of Accuracy in Media. AIA claims to promote accuracy in higher education but has pursued tactics such as encouraging students to report on faculty, publishing alleged errors, and recruiting volunteers to monitor classes. The discussion highlights how these efforts, framed as correcting bias, often targeted liberal faculty and created controversy by pressuring universities through media exposure and alumni concerns. A case study involving Virginia Tech illustrates how AIA campaigns, though unsuccessful in altering teaching practices, generated …


Coding With Duplicate Program Reviews: An Administrator's Guide, Corwin P. King Aug 1988

Coding With Duplicate Program Reviews: An Administrator's Guide, Corwin P. King

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article recounts the experience of a speech communication program undergoing a duplication review by the State of Washington’s Council for Postsecondary Education. The review, aimed at identifying potentially unnecessary programs, required institutions to provide extensive data on need, demand, quality, and productivity. The program at Central Washington University, judged vulnerable due to low enrollments and degree conferrals, was recommended for termination despite evidence of quality and relevance. After appeals and hearings, the university trustees deferred closure and eventually voted to continue the program, aided by changes in state oversight agencies. The discussion provides guidance for administrators facing similar reviews, …

Journalism, Liberal Arts And Editors, Drake Mabry Apr 1988

Journalism, Liberal Arts And Editors, Drake Mabry

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article explores the ongoing tensions between journalism educators and newsroom editors regarding the preparation of graduates. Editors frequently criticize students for weak writing, limited reading habits, inadequate knowledge of history and government, lack of accuracy, poor questioning skills, and insufficient passion for journalism. At the same time, educators argue that these concerns reflect broader issues in higher education rather than journalism programs alone. The discussion highlights survey data showing declining student interest in print journalism, largely due to low salaries and the appeal of broadcast and public relations, while also noting editors’ concerns about accreditation and liberal arts requirements. …


Sharing The Responsibility Of Media Literacy: Reaching Out To Other Disciplines, Jeffrey M. Mccall Apr 1988

Sharing The Responsibility Of Media Literacy: Reaching Out To Other Disciplines, Jeffrey M. Mccall

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article argues for expanding media literacy education beyond communication majors to reach all college students, emphasizing the pervasive influence of mediated messages in shaping civic, political, and cultural life. It reviews historical and contemporary calls for media awareness as an essential component of liberal education and highlights efforts at DePauw University to establish a Center for Contemporary Media as a model for campuswide integration. The discussion stresses the importance of defining the fundamental contributions of mass communication to liberal learning, while avoiding overly vocational approaches. Proposals for broadening media literacy include cross-disciplinary team teaching, faculty development initiatives, lecture series, …


Academic Values Are Losing Out To The Narrow Values Of Industry Representatives In The Accreditation Process, Robert O. Blanchard Apr 1988

Academic Values Are Losing Out To The Narrow Values Of Industry Representatives In The Accreditation Process, Robert O. Blanchard

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article critiques the dominance of professional values in the accreditation of journalism and mass communication programs, arguing that academic perspectives have been marginalized in the process. It highlights how accreditation policies, shaped largely by industry representatives, have defined all journalism and mass communication courses as non-liberal arts, a stance that threatens the intellectual and academic identity of the field. The discussion emphasizes that many communication courses contribute directly to liberal education through conceptual and critical content, and rigid vocational classifications risk undermining their value within universities. Historical perspectives and comparisons with liberal arts traditions are used to illustrate the …


The Role Of Journalism And Media Studies In The New Era Of Disciplinary Realignments, Willard D. Rowlands Jr. Apr 1988

The Role Of Journalism And Media Studies In The New Era Of Disciplinary Realignments, Willard D. Rowlands Jr.

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article addresses the role of journalism and media studies within the shifting landscape of higher education and disciplinary realignments. It situates contemporary debates about specialization and liberal education within a long historical trajectory, noting that tensions between professional and liberal traditions have existed since classical and medieval times. The discussion critiques views that blame professional fields for undermining liberal education, arguing instead that new specializations have often revitalized intellectual traditions. It emphasizes the interdisciplinary character of journalism and communication, which has historically linked professional practice with philosophical and civic concerns. Examples from Chicago School sociology, Dewey’s pragmatism, and Lippmann’s …
