Communication/Information Technologies And University Education: A Survey Of Alumni About Workplace Technologies, David R. Seibold, Christine M. Bauch, Susan J. Grant, Kim T. Nguyen, Mimako Saeki, Kristin L. Schnarr, Kathleen A. Solowczuk Jan 1992

Communication/Information Technologies And University Education: A Survey Of Alumni About Workplace Technologies, David R. Seibold, Christine M. Bauch, Susan J. Grant, Kim T. Nguyen, Mimako Saeki, Kristin L. Schnarr, Kathleen A. Solowczuk

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Using a mailed questionnaire to recent university graduates, this study evaluates how well undergraduate programs equip communication majors for communication and information technologies common in the workplace. Respondents reported that fax machines and word processing software were the only tools present in more than seventy percent of their work units, while voice messaging was the sole technology most of them used daily. Yet fewer than half felt competent with even these basic applications. Alumni said they acquired skills for nineteen of forty four surveyed technologies only after graduation, and most rated their campus preparation as only somewhat useful or not …

Implementing Speaking Across The Curriculum: A Case Study, Mahia Strohmaier, Marcia Stratton, Donald Novak, John Leipzig Jan 1992

Implementing Speaking Across The Curriculum: A Case Study, Mahia Strohmaier, Marcia Stratton, Donald Novak, John Leipzig

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Responding to evidence of weak oral communication competence among college students, this case study chronicles how one university embedded speaking across the curriculum within a new general core. Defining advanced literacy as critical comprehension plus public participation, the reform added a required presentation oriented basic course followed by an upper division oral intensive course in each major. Three emphases emerged: public speaking, small group, and technical presentation, each shaped by shared grading weights, developmental tasks, minimum audience size, and structured feedback. Speech Communication faculty revised the basic courses, delivered faculty workshops, and produced a handbook covering assessment, anxiety reduction, and …

The Public Relations Need In Assessment Reporting, Joan E. Aitken, Michael Neer Jan 1992

The Public Relations Need In Assessment Reporting, Joan E. Aitken, Michael Neer

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

University mandated assessment can improve learning but also carries political stakes that shape department survival. This article chronicles five years of assessment activity in a communication program after a statewide directive and shows how faculty moved from resistance to cautious optimism as they refined competency based tests portfolios and interviews. The central argument is that assessment findings double as public relations messages heard by administrators legislators and the media. When results are reported without strategic framing strong programs may appear weak and become targets for budget cuts. The essay details missteps such as offering candid commentary that was later quoted …

The State Of Communication Undergraduate Academic Advising, Beth M. Waggenspack, Wayne E. Hemsley Jan 1992

The State Of Communication Undergraduate Academic Advising, Beth M. Waggenspack, Wayne E. Hemsley

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Based on a national questionnaire sent to every U.S. speech-communication program, this study maps the landscape of undergraduate academic advising in the discipline. Results show advising remains overwhelmingly faculty-based: 73 percent of departments assign all tenure-track (or all faculty) to the task, yet advisee distribution is skewed, with a median load of 23 students and 56 percent of departments allocating advisees by faculty area specialty. Preparation and rewards are thin; one-third of advisors receive no training and only 9 percent gain any course-load reduction, while 86 percent report no formal compensation. Training, when provided, is usually a brief workshop or …

Mass Communication Education Belongs To The University, Jeffery Mccall Jan 1992

Mass Communication Education Belongs To The University, Jeffery Mccall

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This essay argues that mass communication programs must reclaim their place in the liberal arts rather than serving as vocational finishing schools for the media industry. Decades of deference, it contends, have let professionals dictate skills-heavy curricula, foster the belief that universities exist to supply entry-level labor, and equate education with training. To regain intellectual legitimacy—and political and financial standing on campus—the discipline should consolidate scattered sequences, emphasize theory, criticism, and media effects, and design courses usable by non-majors. Faculty hiring must meet the scholarly standards of other liberal arts departments, shifting evaluation from “war stories” to research and conceptual …

Developing The Nonperformance Organization In Speech Communication: A Case Study, Roseanna Ross, Judith Litterst Jan 1992

Developing The Nonperformance Organization In Speech Communication: A Case Study, Roseanna Ross, Judith Litterst

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Drawing on administrative and student-development literature, this article outlines criteria for discipline-centered student organizations and then examines the creation, growth, and outcomes of a nonperformance Speech Communication Club at a large Midwestern university. The club’s evolution is traced through three phases—felt need, growth and development, and stabilization—highlighting structural changes such as a rotating executive board and committee system. Survey data and faculty feedback indicate the organization effectively fosters peer networking, student–faculty contact, departmental service, and campus visibility, while alumni engagement and application of classroom concepts remain areas for improvement. The case demonstrates that a nonperformance club can extend experiential learning, …

Footprints In The Shifting Sands Of The Isle Of Palms: A Practical Analysis Of Regulatory Takings Cases, John R. Nolon Jan 1992

Footprints In The Shifting Sands Of The Isle Of Palms: A Practical Analysis Of Regulatory Takings Cases, John R. Nolon

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

It was not until the last day of the term, June 29, 1992, that the Court decided Lucas. By that time, interest could not have been greater. At issue was the validity of a regulation that prohibited all permanent development of the plaintiff's two beachfront lots. The South Carolina Supreme Court upheld the regulation by a 3-2 margin because it prevented a “great public harm.” The U.S. Supreme Court reversed that determination and remanded the case to determine whether South Carolina's common law of nuisance could prohibit the construction of single-family housing on the lots. The fractured Court delivered an …

What Comes Out Must Go In: Cooling Water Intakes And The Clean Water Act, Karl R. Rábago Jan 1992

What Comes Out Must Go In: Cooling Water Intakes And The Clean Water Act, Karl R. Rábago

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

It is time to measure progress under section 316 of the Clear Water Act, the one section of the Act that focuses not on discharges, but on intakes. Part II of this Article discusses the environmental hazards in more detail and explains how cooling water intakes produce them. Part III of this Article examines the history of regulation and nonregulation under section 316(b) of the Clean Water Act, describes the development of the "common law" concerning the regulation of cooling water intakes, and explores the effect of EPA's regulatory actions and omissions on state regulatory efforts. Part IV assesses the …

The Jeovah Imperative: Images Of Incest And Blood Sacrifice In Walpole's "The Castle Of Otranto" And Flannery O'Connor's "Wise Blood", Penelope Hope Goff Jan 1992

The Jeovah Imperative: Images Of Incest And Blood Sacrifice In Walpole's "The Castle Of Otranto" And Flannery O'Connor's "Wise Blood", Penelope Hope Goff

Open Access Master's Theses

This thesis compares and contrasts Biblical images in Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto (1764) and Flannery O'Connor's Wise Blood (1949), seeking to illuminate their common participation in Judeo-Christian philosophy (referred to herein as the Jehovah Imperative) and in the tradition of Gothic fiction. Although both books center on a religious hero who defies an "irreligious" authority, and both are resolved when a major character is murdered by a legitimate legal agent, historical and feminist perspectives will show: (1) the ways in which Walpole's Otranto manipulated Biblical images in favor of eighteenth-century Protestant ambition and the furtherance of the father-son …
