Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article describes the use of telemarketing as a tool for building audiences for university theatres. Drawing on campaigns at the University of Alabama, it explains how combining direct mail with telephone follow-up significantly increased subscription sales over multiple seasons. The discussion emphasizes the importance of training callers, selecting effective coordinators, and using motivated work-study students as sales staff. Strategies included incentive systems, a structured three-week campaign, and techniques for handling common objections during calls. Additional practices such as offering free tickets as promotional bonuses, tracking subscriber attendance, and over-selling to account for no-shows helped maximize revenue and audience engagement. …

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article reports the results of a national survey on the presence of conflict and negotiation courses in communication curricula. Questionnaires were distributed to four-year and graduate institutions, with findings showing that over twenty percent offered at least one course in the area, and a smaller number offered two or more.

An Investigation Of Articles Produced In The Communication Discipline By Institution: A Journal By Journal, Year By Year Analysis, Vernon O. Ray, Kittie W. Watson, Larry L. Barker, Robert N. Hall

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article presents a year-by-year and journal-by-journal analysis of article production in the communication discipline from 1980 to 1985. The study builds on earlier research identifying the fifty most productive institutions and examines both the number of articles produced annually and the distribution of publications across eleven major journals.

Results show that top-ranked institutions maintained steady levels of publication, while lower-ranked institutions fluctuated more significantly in output. The analysis highlights trends in journal preferences among institutions and considers how editorial affiliations may influence publishing patterns. Although the study focuses on …

Developing An Extended Degree Program, Keith A. Miller

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

It highlights the unique needs of adult learners, such as balancing multiple responsibilities, valuing practical application, and bringing significant life experience to their studies. The discussion outlines the philosophical and structural foundations of extended programs, noting that they must represent more than simply relocating a campus curriculum. Various administrative structures, curricular models, and program elements are reviewed, including flexible scheduling, credit for prior learning, and integration of community resources. Key considerations include faculty readiness, institutional …
