Theatre As A Liberal Art, Gladys M. Crane
Theatre As A Liberal Art, Gladys M. Crane
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay argues that theatre belongs centrally within the liberal arts because it is a humanizing discipline rooted in the interpretation of human action. Theatre is presented as an eclectic art that synthesizes visual, spatial, aural, and temporal forms, while requiring analytical, interpretive, and integrative judgment throughout the production process. The discussion emphasizes that theatrical creation engages imagination, creativity, and critical evaluation as students move from script analysis to design, rehearsal, and performance. Because theatre draws on psychology, sociology, history, and ethics, the study of plays and characters demands sustained reflection on values, cultural contexts, and human motivation. The essay …
In Defense Of Mass Communication As A Liberal Art, Robert K. Tiemens
In Defense Of Mass Communication As A Liberal Art, Robert K. Tiemens
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay defends mass communication as a legitimate component of the liberal arts and responds to criticisms both from outside and within the communication discipline. The author argues that mass communication courses address fundamental questions about the social, political, and cultural influence of media and therefore extend far beyond technical training. The discussion emphasizes that liberal education requires understanding how mediated symbols shape public life and contends that studying the effects, practices, and history of broadcasting aligns directly with liberal arts aims. The essay also notes that accrediting standards already require a strong ratio of liberal arts coursework for mass …
Developing A Program Justification: Strategies For Locating And Valuing The Discipline, Ronald L. Applbaum
Developing A Program Justification: Strategies For Locating And Valuing The Discipline, Ronald L. Applbaum
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay evaluates arguments offered by four communication subfields regarding their place within the liberal arts and proposes a broader strategy for program justification in contemporary higher education. The author contends that while the contributing essays aim to demonstrate disciplinary value, they pursue divergent goals and do not provide persuasive grounds for resource allocation by senior administrators. Situating the discussion within shifting institutional priorities, the essay notes that colleges have increasingly blended liberal and vocational learning in response to changing student demand and external pressures. The author argues that communication’s diversity can be a strength, as the discipline engages both …
Analysis Of Teaching Evaluation Instruments Collected By Aca, Betty Jo Welch
Analysis Of Teaching Evaluation Instruments Collected By Aca, Betty Jo Welch
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article analyzes twenty nine student evaluation instruments collected from seventy five higher education institutions in the United States and Canada in order to determine how teaching effectiveness is conceptualized and measured. The study identifies substantial variation in instrument design yet finds seven recurring dimensions: organization, student teacher interaction and rapport, classroom skill and lecturing ability, workload and course difficulty, grading and evaluation, personal satisfaction, and course content. Representative literature is reviewed to assess the strengths and limitations of evaluation approaches such as alumni surveys, self evaluation, student achievement measures, classroom visitation, and peer review. Research evidence indicates that well …
Under And Over The Hill, Peter Garvie
Under And Over The Hill, Peter Garvie
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This essay reflects on the problem of faculty who have become unproductive, disengaged, or resistant to change and considers how academic communities perceive and respond to such colleagues. Through an extended narrative and metaphorical analysis, the author distinguishes between those who have not yet reached professional maturity, those who have declined after earlier achievement, and those whose self perception is disconnected from their actual performance. The essay examines institutional tendencies to tolerate or obscure persistent non productivity, often due to bureaucratic structures that make intervention difficult. Drawing on metaphors of light, shadow, perception, and psychological projection, the author explores how …

This paper describes the design, construction, installation and operation results of the Florida Solar Energy Center (FSEC) photovoltaic tracking research facility. The facility was designed to test and compare the performance of stationary and tracking flat-plate and concentrating photovoltaic systems on a side-by-side basis and to obtain insolation data on one and two-axis tracking surfaces. The solar resource data will be used to compare the relative amounts of insolation available to the various surfaces for use in system design studies and computer model validation. The purpose of this testing is to determine the performance benefits for the various tracking system …
