The Ideal Dean: Appropriate And Inappropriate Uses Of Power, Richard R. Ranta Apr 1985

The Ideal Dean: Appropriate And Inappropriate Uses Of Power, Richard R. Ranta

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the powers vested in a dean and the conditions under which those powers may be used responsibly or irresponsibly. It identifies multiple forms of power, including rule making, budget control, communication, discretionary funding, staffing, curriculum development, leadership by example, and integrative coordination. Appropriate use of these powers is characterized by openness, consultation, clear procedures, and alignment with institutional goals. Inappropriate use involves secrecy, favoritism, short term expediency, or actions that undermine academic standards and collegial trust. The article argues that the dean’s effectiveness depends on fairness, accessibility, and the ability to unite diverse …

A President Interprets The Roles And Powers Of The Ideal Dean, Donald W. Zacharias

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article presents a presidential perspective on the responsibilities and qualities that define an ideal dean.

Ideal Interactive Roles Of Chairs And Deans, Jon Whitmore

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines the collaborative relationship between chairs and deans, arguing that effective administration depends on open communication, shared responsibility, and mutual awareness of constraints. It identifies common barriers to productive interaction, including territorialism and limited communication. The article proposes a model in which deans guide and mentor chairs, while chairs offer grounded departmental insight, creating a reciprocal advisory relationship. It distinguishes the differing scopes of authority and responsibility held by chairs and deans and argues that alignment of goals requires systematic dialogue and coordinated planning. Evaluation is presented as a mutual process in which each party provides constructive feedback …

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 …

The essay outlines the creation of an auditioning class limited to advanced students and organized around a culminating trip to New York, where participants experience actual audition environments. The course includes instruction in self evaluation, type identification, professional photographs and resumes, monologue preparation, sight readings, and interview techniques.

The family operated a successful, free enclosure, safari type zoo attraction and visitor center at its park in the Arbuckle Mountains on Interstate Highway 35, midway between Oklahoma City and Dallas/Fort Worth. This site was large and expandable and considered as the primary location for the contemplated project. The proposed project was a …
