It also describes difficulties related to explaining the department’s mission to college administrators, evaluating promotion and tenure across distinct fields, allocating resources …

It outlines the department’s historical development from rhetoric and public speaking, the addition of theatre and radio-television-film, and the effects of housing related areas within one administrative unit. The article describes both the practical advantages of consolidation, including political influence, enrollment strength, service courses, and graduate assistantships, and the challenges of shared governance, budget priorities, facilities, area identity, and administrative responsibility.

A Response To Merged Or Independent Departments, Robert K. Tiemens
A Response To Merged Or Independent Departments, Robert K. Tiemens
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
This article responds to arguments about merged and independent department structures in communication-related fields. Drawing on the Department of Communication at the University of Utah, it describes how a formal merger of speech, journalism, speech pathology, and audiology did not immediately create an integrated department, but gradually developed through budget consolidation, shared administrative policies, geographic relocation, and revised leadership roles. The article emphasizes that no single organizational structure suits all institutions and that departments often must adapt to structures shaped by higher administrative decisions. It critiques arguments based mainly on enrollment, required basic courses, public relations, or political influence, and …

As They Are: How Relevant Are Professional Publications For Theatre In Academe?, David L. Jorns
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
Using the closure of Exchange: A Journal of Opinion for the Performing Arts as a starting point, this article examines the relationship between academic theatre professionals and professional publications. It describes the journal’s original purpose as an outlet for performance faculty in higher education and traces how its audience, submissions, and circulation diverged from those expectations. The article considers low readership and publication rates among theatre faculty, the role of automatic association subscriptions in sustaining some journals, and survey findings suggesting that creative production is often accepted in place of refereed publication for promotion and tenure. It argues that many …

It reviews professional role descriptions and survey findings indicating that human relations and communication skills are central to effective training practice. The article also summarizes employer studies identifying oral communication, writing, and interpersonal communication as common weaknesses among college graduates and as barriers to job …
The Outsiders: Women In The Academy, Michele T. Myers
The Outsiders: Women In The Academy, Michele T. Myers
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
Women’s status in higher education is examined through legal, institutional, and statistical changes following major equity legislation of the early 1970s. The article acknowledges gains in women’s access to higher education, women’s studies programs, professional networks, and administrative development, while emphasizing persistent disparities in employment, rank, tenure, salary, and promotion. Drawing on reports from the Women’s Equity Action League, the American Association of University Professors, and a National Research Council study of matched male and female Ph.D.s, the article presents evidence that women remain concentrated in lower academic ranks, earn less than men, and advance more slowly toward tenure and …

Matrix Design: An Alternative Model For Organizing The School Or Department, Philip J. Salem, Robert D. Gratz
Matrix Design: An Alternative Model For Organizing The School Or Department, Philip J. Salem, Robert D. Gratz
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
Matrix design is presented as an alternative organizational model for schools and departments of communication facing competition, complex curricular demands, limited resources, and pressures for accountability. The article contrasts traditional bureaucratic structures with matrix structures, in which faculty or staff may report simultaneously to program managers and functional managers. It explains how this model can clarify authority, improve coordination, and support both continuity and innovation across areas such as undergraduate education, graduate education, research, public service, advisement, theatre production, and communication program administration. Examples include a comprehensive speech communication department and a university theatre production program, both of which require …
The Beginning, Intermediate, And Advanced Study Of Interpersonal Communication, Paul G. Friedman
The Beginning, Intermediate, And Advanced Study Of Interpersonal Communication, Paul G. Friedman
Association for Communication Administration Bulletin
A framework for sequencing interpersonal communication coursework is proposed through a producer, marketer, and consumer metaphor. Developed after a review of interpersonal communication offerings at the University of Kansas, the article distinguishes among introductory, intermediate, and advanced levels of study. Beginning students are described as consumers who learn established knowledge and apply interpersonal communication concepts and skills to personal and professional contexts. Intermediate students are positioned as marketers who synthesize existing research, study primary sources, develop greater skill proficiency, and apply knowledge in more complex settings such as simulations, internships, teaching, or case analysis. Advanced students are presented as producers …

It describes a three tier system that combines a general salary increase with differentiated merit awards for faculty ranked in upper, middle, and lower performance groups. The article addresses how departments may define valued faculty activity through explicit criteria for teaching, research, publication, and service, while also preserving attention to equity, rank, and length of service. It presents the model as a way to reward exceptional contributions without denying recognition to competent faculty members. The article situates …
