A Comparison Between The Usa And Australia In The Administration Of Communication Studies In Higher Education, Michael Kaye, Bobby H. Patton
A Comparison Between The Usa And Australia In The Administration Of Communication Studies In Higher Education, Michael Kaye, Bobby H. Patton
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article compares the administration of communication studies programs in the United States and Australia, using a faculty exchange between the University of Kansas and Kuring-gai College of Advanced Education as a case study. The analysis identifies three major areas of difference: historical development, philosophical orientation, and administrative policies. In the United States, communication programs largely evolved from speech departments with strong rhetorical and skills-based traditions, while in Australia the field developed more recently with interdisciplinary and critical orientations. Philosophical divergences are evident in curricular emphases, with American programs often stressing public speaking and skills training, and Australian programs incorporating …

The State Of Mass Communication, Ellen Wartella
The State Of Mass Communication, Ellen Wartella
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article evaluates the state of mass communication as an academic field, examining its organizational, educational, and theoretical conditions in the mid-1980s. The discussion situates mass communication within a context of growing public, institutional, and industrial interest in media and communication technologies. Three major areas are identified. Organizationally, the field is experiencing departmental consolidation and debate over nomenclature as traditional speech and journalism programs merge into unified communication units. Educationally, enrollments are expanding rapidly, yet faculty shortages and an industrial hiring model threaten academic rigor. Theoretically, the discipline faces tensions between professional training and liberal arts orientations, as well as …
Part-Time And Temporary Faculty In Theatre, Patti P. Gillespie
Part-Time And Temporary Faculty In Theatre, Patti P. Gillespie
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article examines the increasing reliance on part-time and temporary faculty in university theatre programs and identifies the pedagogical, artistic, and administrative implications of their use. It argues that part-time and temporary faculty fulfill three primary functions: they introduce new ideas and creative approaches into established departments; they maintain vital links between academic and professional theatre; and they provide specialized expertise that complements permanent faculty strengths. The discussion distinguishes theatre from other disciplines whose centers of innovation are academic, emphasizing that the creative core of theatre remains in professional practice. Accordingly, guest artists, designers, and actors serve as essential conduits …
A Prognosis For The Field Of Communication, Erwin P. Bettinghaus
A Prognosis For The Field Of Communication, Erwin P. Bettinghaus
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay presents an optimistic evaluation of the communication discipline, arguing that the field’s institutional growth, intellectual diversification, and expanding public visibility signal long-term vitality. Evidence of strength includes increased student enrollment across subfields, greater institutional funding, steady employment opportunities, growing recognition by industry and government, and a maturing research culture that has moved beyond foundational definitional debates. Nonetheless, the analysis identifies several risks: declining graduate student recruitment due to market competition, internal fragmentation following departmental reorganization, and ideological polarization between professional and theoretical approaches. The forecast anticipates continued growth driven by technological innovation, heightened demand for communication teachers, and …

Effects Of Volunteer Activity On Psychosocial Adjustment Among The Elderly, William R. Criss
Effects Of Volunteer Activity On Psychosocial Adjustment Among The Elderly, William R. Criss
Retrospective Theses and Dissertations
This research was carried out to determine if psychosocial adjustment improves for elderly persons engaged in volunteer activity. Questionnaires were completed by 27 persons aged 60 or over before and two months after beginning volunteer activity at one of 33 Florida community hospitals. A control group of 37 persons without hospital volunteer experience also completed these two questionnaires, which covered several aspects of psychosocial adjustment, including self-esteem, life satisfaction, sense of control, optimism, anxiety, depression and somatization. An analysis of covariance with repeated measures indicated that there was no significant improvement in subjective well-being associated with volunteer activity after accounting …

A Program Of Faculty Development For Small College Career Satisfaction, Thomas W. Duncanson, Alberto Gonzalez
A Program Of Faculty Development For Small College Career Satisfaction, Thomas W. Duncanson, Alberto Gonzalez
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This paper proposes a model of faculty development designed to enhance career satisfaction and professional retention among small college teachers. Recognizing that such institutions often experience high faculty turnover and limited professional support, the authors argue that sustained faculty vitality depends on cultivating collegiality, autonomy, and scholarship. Collegiality is presented as a political and ethical mode of academic governance that requires shared purpose, participatory decision making, and ongoing reflection on the moral obligations of teaching. Autonomy is defined as disciplined self-direction rather than individualism, representing both personal growth and institutional benefit. Scholarship is examined as a balance between the reproduction …

Surviving In A Research University, Philip Emmert
Surviving In A Research University, Philip Emmert
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This study investigates the criteria and institutional expectations shaping tenure, promotion, and merit decisions in research-oriented universities, with particular attention to the communication discipline. Drawing on a pilot survey of twenty-one graduate programs, the analysis compares faculty workload distribution with evaluative weighting, revealing significant discrepancies between assigned duties and assessment standards. While assistant professors devote roughly sixty percent of their time to teaching, tenure and promotion decisions prioritize research productivity, which receives over half of evaluative weight. Quantitative expectations typically include approximately seven refereed journal articles before tenure consideration, with textbooks and conference papers valued substantially lower. The discussion contextualizes …
