The Impact Of Responsibility Center Management On Communications Departments, Don Agostino
The Impact Of Responsibility Center Management On Communications Departments, Don Agostino
Journal of the Association for Communication Administration
This article discusses the impact of responsibility center management (RCM) on the communications departments in universities in the U.S. RCM has pointed out several problems with university fiscal planning which bear directly on communications programs. First, there is no budget provision for the planned replacement of expensive theater, telecommunications, or journalism equipment. Second, under RCM departments with auxiliary-type activities such as theater, a television station or student newspaper have difficulty taxing other credit-granting academic units for those contributions to community. The university needs these outreach and artistic activities to educate the students, to provide a cultural environment appealing to good …
Political Correctness--Correct?, Paul H. Boase
Political Correctness--Correct?, Paul H. Boase
Journal of the Association for Communication Administration
This article provides information on political correctness (PC). PC, as an expression, began years ago as something of a joke to describe communists who slavishly toed the party line. In the eyes of the right-wing anti-PC forces, this modern crusade toward multiculturalism sprang from the machinations of the 1968 campus radicals.
The Influence Of Gender And Area Of Specialty On Salary For Telecommunication Graduates, David Atkin
The Influence Of Gender And Area Of Specialty On Salary For Telecommunication Graduates, David Atkin
Journal of the Association for Communication Administration
This article examines the influence of gender and area of specialty on salary for telecommunication graduates in the U.S. Gender is linked with a key earnings attribute--nature of work experience. The positive influence of work experience is not surprising, confirming the expectation that those with more experience are likely to earn more money. While much of this influence may be a function of seniority, it seems likely also that lower-paid or less skilled employees would shake-out of their media position relatively sooner. Those remaining in the field would logically advance as their skills dictate, developing closer ties with client accounts, …
The Ethos Of An Academic Department, Mark Hickson Iii
The Ethos Of An Academic Department, Mark Hickson Iii
Journal of the Association for Communication Administration
This article discusses the ethos of an academic department. It is fundamental that a department have high credibility on campus. Such ethos is important for faculty members gaining positions on important committees on campus. When departments do not produce research, for example, they are unlikely to have faculty placed on research/graduate school committees. The three most important components of a credible department are faculty, students, and administrators. Student ethos is obtained and maintained through the quality and quantity of enrollees in service and major program courses. Faculty ethos is comprised of effective teaching, curriculum maintenance, productive research, and outstanding service. …
Speech Communication At Iowa State University: A History Of Broken Promises And Shifting Leadership, Claudia L. Hale, Mark V. Redmond
Speech Communication At Iowa State University: A History Of Broken Promises And Shifting Leadership, Claudia L. Hale, Mark V. Redmond
Journal of the Association for Communication Administration
This article attempts to offer a constructive analysis of pressures applied to the Department of Speech Communication at Iowa State University and the circumstances which have resulted in the changes that have occurred, as of September 1995. The department has been in a state of instability and insecurity for more than 20 years. There has long been a sense of foreboding over the department, probably since it began to expand its curriculum beyond simply offering basic public speaking. In the fall of 1986, the department was a multi-focus department, composed of four separate interest areas, including speech communication, theater, telecommunicative …
