Conducting A Departmental Review, Joseph W. Macdoniels

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article describes and evaluates the departmental review model developed at Hope College as an institutional mechanism for continuous program assessment suited to the small college context. It begins by identifying structural barriers that make conventional external evaluation impractical for small institutions, including limited financial resources, unique institutional missions, and disciplinary breadth within small departments. The model presented replaces costly outside evaluation with a recurring internal review cycle in which departmental self studies and structured presentations form the basis for institutional dialogue. The article outlines the objectives of the review process, emphasizing the promotion of systematic departmental planning, the cultivation …

Thinking Out Loud: Teaching The Other Half Of The Communication Course, Richard M. Goldstein, Charles W. Nelson

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article documents an instructional experiment designed to integrate foundational oral communication skills into a required first year composition sequence at Michigan Technological University. The initiative emerged from institutional constraints that prevented speech courses from counting toward graduation and from growing recognition that technological students need competence in oral communication as well as writing. The article details the collaborative planning between an English instructor and a speech teacher who sought to embed oral communication concepts within the third quarter of the composition curriculum, using a media centered unit as the organizing structure. The analysis describes the Dorm English program as …

A Special Tool For Offering Criticism: The Post-Speech Transcript, Gary B. Lafleur

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article analyzes the limitations of traditional immediate post speech criticism in basic public speaking courses and presents a four step evaluation system designed to produce more deliberate and comprehensive feedback. It argues that conventional critique sheets and spontaneous peer comments often result in superficial observations shaped by the immediacy of performance, emotional distortion, and the restricted scope of one page forms. To address these problems, the article outlines a sequenced process that begins with a post speech conference held the day after the presentation, allowing for a more reflective review of critique sheet comments and targeted discussion of areas …

So You’Re It! The Theatre Program Of Limited Size, James L. Deyoung

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines the conditions, constraints, and opportunities that define theatre programs staffed by one or two trained faculty members. It critiques professional assumptions that equate disciplinary success with technical specialization and argues that small program faculty routinely manage the full range of theatrical responsibilities. The discussion identifies core challenges facing limited size programs, including restricted peer interaction, limited time for professional development, heavy teaching loads concentrated in introductory courses, tight budgets, and geographic isolation that reduces access to live theatre. The analysis contends that faculty must counter these constraints through consistent professional engagement, attendance at conferences, and exposure to …

Dropping Out Of High School: An Inside Look, Michelle Fine

Publications and Research

In September, 1984, I began an ethnography of student life in and out of a New York City public high school to figure out why urban students drop out of high school at such extraordinary rates. By December, why urban students stay in high school through graduation struck me as an equally compelling question.
