Whole-Building Moisture Experiments And Data Analysis. Draft Task 1 Final Report, Milestone #219. February 5, 1988. 91 P., Florida Solar Energy Center, Adel A. Kamel

FSEC Energy Research Center®

For four months (August -November) in 1987 whole -building moisture capacitance experiments were done on a townhouse in Cocoa, Florida. The experiments were designed to: 1. Observe the response of a building to imposed moisture flux 2. Determine the moisture storage capacity of the building and furnishings 3. Evaluate simple models designed to predict the response of room air humidity ration to pulses of moisture 4. Assess two innovative approaches to cooling (off-peak cooling and DESRAD) The results of the tests indicated that moisture storage in the furnishings is much greater than moisture storage in the air. The bare building …

Communication's Oratorical And Natural Rights Heritage And The Liberal Arts, Stewart Hudson Apr 1988

Communication's Oratorical And Natural Rights Heritage And The Liberal Arts, Stewart Hudson

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article explores the philosophical and historical roots linking communication studies to the liberal arts tradition. Drawing on the oratorical heritage of classical Greece and the natural rights philosophy of early English empiricists, it argues that both traditions emphasized clarity, accuracy, and responsible expression in the service of civic virtue. The discussion contrasts these foundations with modern trends toward relativism, specialization, and professionalism, which risk fragmenting education and distancing communication from its liberal arts identity. The article critiques neutrality and adversarialism as inadequate models of journalistic objectivity, advocating instead for careful semantic discrimination and commitment to truth. It concludes that …

The Academy And The Professions: Inherent Tensions In Professional Accreditation, Vernon A. Keel Apr 1988

The Academy And The Professions: Inherent Tensions In Professional Accreditation, Vernon A. Keel

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines the inherent tensions between professional accreditation and the university tradition, focusing on developments in the Accrediting Council on Education in Journalism and Mass Communications during the 1980s. It reviews the adoption of six general principles for accreditation, emphasizing institutional integrity, diversity, innovation, liberal education, academic control, and minimizing administrative burden. Major changes included a shift to unit accreditation, clearer standards, improved reporting procedures, and expanded professional representation. The discussion highlights controversies such as proposals to return to sequence accreditation, stricter liberal arts requirements through the 90/65 rule, and ongoing concerns about balanced representation between educators and professionals …

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. …

Professional And Liberal Education, Thomas W. Bohn Apr 1988

Professional And Liberal Education, Thomas W. Bohn

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines the place of journalism and mass communication within higher education, arguing that the field must be defined more clearly to establish its role in liberal education. It critiques efforts such as the Oregon Report for failing to provide a strong philosophical rationale, contending that journalism is one form of mass communication rather than a separate discipline. The discussion emphasizes process as the core of communication, suggesting that focusing on communication theory and practice provides a more stable foundation than media- or technology-based definitions. Concerns over accreditation standards are highlighted, particularly how rigid credit ratios risk reducing journalism …

On The Margins: Journalism And Journalism Education, Douglas Birkhead Apr 1988

On The Margins: Journalism And Journalism Education, Douglas Birkhead

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines the identity of journalism education as situated between the press and the university, arguing that its position on the margins of both institutions should be valued rather than lamented. It traces the historical evolution of journalism, noting how early practitioners combined broad cultural and civic engagement with professional work, while later developments emphasized specialization, efficiency, and standardization. The discussion critiques journalism education for aligning too closely with industrial models of news production and for failing to articulate a broader intellectual role. It proposes that journalism educators embrace their dual position, combining scholarly insight with public communication to …
