Curricula, Budgets, And Facilities In Education For Radio And Television, Garland C. Elmore

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article reports a national survey of undergraduate programs emphasizing radio and television, describing curricular organization, resource levels, and facilities across institutions in the mid nineteen eighties. Based on responses from one hundred ninety four departments, the study finds that most programs are housed within integrated communication units rather than autonomous media departments, with larger campuses more likely to maintain separate media structures. Undergraduate majors total more than forty thousand nationwide, with higher concentrations at large public institutions. Introductory offerings vary widely in title and scope, reflecting production, writing, history, theory, and survey orientations. Nearly half of departments offer graduate …

Censorship On College And University Campuses, David W. Weiss

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article contends that censorship is present in higher education, although its form and extent vary according to institutional type, mission, and community context. Drawing on examples from public and private universities, particularly in Alabama, the discussion explains that public institutions are bound by First Amendment protections, whereas private colleges may legally prohibit productions that conflict with institutional values or religious commitments. Illustrations from urban universities demonstrate the ability to stage controversial works involving nudity, strong language, and provocative themes, while contrasting cases from religious colleges reveal stricter control over theatrical content. The article reviews legal standards for obscenity and …

Censorship In The Private Church-Related College, Philip G. Hill

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines censorship in theatre programs at private church related liberal arts colleges, distinguishing these institutions from narrowly doctrinal religious schools. The author defines censorship along a continuum that ranges from artistic judgment exercised within theatre programs to external administrative or community pressure that compels changes to scripts or productions. Internal decisions regarding cuts, staging, and play selection are characterized as professional judgment rather than censorship when made collaboratively by trained theatre personnel. However, administrative or external intervention that overrides departmental authority constitutes censorship and threatens academic freedom. The article acknowledges that theatrical work is uniquely visible and therefore …

The Impact Of Communication Apprehension On Student Retention And Success: A Preliminary Report, James C. Mccroskey, Steven K. Payne

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article reports preliminary results from a longitudinal investigation of how communication apprehension influences academic performance and student retention in college. Data were collected from 1884 incoming freshmen at a large public university, who completed a standardized communication apprehension measure during orientation. Official academic records over four consecutive semesters provided grade point averages, credits earned, and enrollment status. Analyses reveal that students with high communication apprehension consistently earned lower grade point averages and completed fewer credits than moderate or low apprehensive students. Retention patterns also differed. High apprehensive students were substantially more likely to withdraw from the university over the …

Executive Personality Types: A Comparison Of Military And Civilian Leaders In A Single Organization, John Edward Dewald

Dissertations

Differences between comparable military and civilian upper-level leaders in a single military organization were examined in terms of personality types. The survey instrument used was the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), which was developed for use in personality assessment of normal individuals through the practical application of C. G. Jung's (1921/1971) theory of psychological types. Thirty pairs of executives were surveyed. Each participating pair consisted of a chief and his deputy, one military and one civilian, who shared the same office, authority, and responsibilities. Response to the survey was 100 percent.

Two sets of findings emerged from this study, the first …
