A Communication Model Of Sexual Harassment, Mark Hickson Iii, R. D. Grierson, Barbara C. Linder Oct 1990

A Communication Model Of Sexual Harassment, Mark Hickson Iii, R. D. Grierson, Barbara C. Linder

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article constructs a communication centered model of sexual harassment that situates discriminatory behavior within workplace discourse and higher education culture. Integrating literature on nonverbal cues, organizational power, gender equity, and legal liability, it profiles typical victims and harassers, classifies verbal and nonverbal acts, and maps six progressive stages from aesthetic appreciation to ultimate threat. The model explains how negative messages escalate, how psychological and economic consequences unfold, and why institutional policies often falter. Drawing on jurisprudence and organizational justice scholarship, the discussion outlines administrative, faculty, and student strategies that combine policy clarity, training, and confidential grievance channels to prevent …

Outcomes Assessment: The Tip Of The Iceberg, Susan S. Cole Oct 1990

Outcomes Assessment: The Tip Of The Iceberg, Susan S. Cole

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines outcomes assessment within undergraduate theatre programs, arguing that accrediting pressures require systematic yet discipline sensitive evaluation. It describes a comprehensive model implemented at a liberal arts institution in which student information cards, videotaped performance projects, junior year faculty interviews, senior capstone presentations, and exit questionnaires generate longitudinal evidence of learning and professional growth. Continuous feedback on acting, directing, design, and teaching practice is combined with written work to document competency while acknowledging that interpersonal skills and work habits also shape success. The approach extends beyond graduation through alumni tracking that informs curricular revision. By demonstrating how subjective …

The Video Camera As An Assessment Tool In The Acting Class, Iva Jean Saraceni Oct 1990

The Video Camera As An Assessment Tool In The Acting Class, Iva Jean Saraceni

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article investigates the use of the video camera to reinforce formative and summative evaluation in acting pedagogy. Observing senior and junior cohorts across sequential course units, it outlines procedures for goal setting, performance recording, playback analysis, and criterion referenced feedback that convert evaluation into an active learning process. Findings indicate that scheduled taping elevates student preparation, fosters ensemble collaboration, sharpens self and peer critique, and produces archival evidence for curricular review, accreditation, and individualized advising. The discussion addresses instructor concerns about inhibition, vanity, and competitive grading, reporting that camera positioning respectful of audience perspective preserves theatrical authenticity while recorded …

Assessing Problem-Solving Abilities In The Theatre Curriculum: A Cummulative And Sequential Approach, Richard Runkel Oct 1990

Assessing Problem-Solving Abilities In The Theatre Curriculum: A Cummulative And Sequential Approach, Richard Runkel

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article proposes a cumulative, sequential framework for assessing problem solving skills within undergraduate theatre curriculum. Grounded in ability based education, the model traces student development across voice and movement, acting, and directing courses, aligning each stage with progressively complex cognitive and collaborative demands. Beginning with self evaluation of vocal and physical goals, learners advance to strategic scene analysis, then to rehearsal planning that orchestrates ensemble resources. Journals, performance documents, and instructor feedback create continuous evidence of growth, enabling students to articulate processes, diagnose challenges, and refine solutions. By embedding reflective practice, discipline specific vocabulary, and structured feedback loops into …

Issues And Strategies In Procurement, Robert C. Burroughs, Julius E. Erienbach, Dennis J. Sporre

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article offers a theatre administration guide to securing institutional funding, presenting a Five P framework: Planning, Proposal, Presentation, Persistence, and Personal Credibility. It stresses rigorous needs assessment, data driven budgeting, and alignment with institutional priorities during planning. The proposal phase advocates clear objectives, outcome focused rhetoric, and precise cost documentation. Effective presentation requires tailored persuasive communication and visual support to address decision makers’ priorities.

Faculty Perceptions Of Publication Expectations In The Small College Setting: Have The Rules Changed?, Bonnie Wilson Buzza Oct 1990

Faculty Perceptions Of Publication Expectations In The Small College Setting: Have The Rules Changed?, Bonnie Wilson Buzza

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article examines publication expectations in small college environments, describing survey data that compare faculty and dean perspectives on scholarship, tenure, promotion, and merit. Results indicate that respondents perceive at least a moderate, increasing need to publish, although faculty sense stronger pressure than administrators. Both groups rank conference papers and discipline currency as central evidence of scholarship, yet diverge on the value of journal articles, grant activity, and horizontal versus vertical research. Self imposed motivation emerges as the dominant driver, while promotion and tenure committees and administrative units exert additional influence. Chemistry and psychology are seen as the fields with …

Demands For Research And Publication At The Small College, Cindy Buell Oct 1990

Demands For Research And Publication At The Small College, Cindy Buell

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article traces the rising demand for faculty research and publication within small college settings and evaluates its impact on promotion and tenure decisions. Through critical synthesis of administrative reports, scholarly literature, and historical trends, the discussion identifies two intersecting drivers: the belief that scholarly activity strengthens teaching effectiveness, and institutional pursuit of academic visibility. Analysis reveals limited empirical support for a direct research teaching link, yet shows how heightened expectations intensify workload, create tension between administrators and faculty, and narrow tenure opportunities under quota systems. Drawing on case evidence of teaching loads, resource constraints, and evolving evaluation criteria, this …

The Collegiality Model: An Alternative For Evaluating Faculty Productivity, Richard A. Katula, Agnes Doody Oct 1990

The Collegiality Model: An Alternative For Evaluating Faculty Productivity, Richard A. Katula, Agnes Doody

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article proposes a collegiality model to replace the publish or perish paradigm that dominates faculty productivity evaluation in higher education. Drawing on organizational communication and scholarship studies, it critiques traditional reliance on publication counts, journal scarcity, and unequal reward structures that undervalue teaching, service, and creative inquiry. The collegiality model reconceives productivity as faculty presence, integrating classroom effectiveness, broad scholarly activity, community engagement, grant acquisition, and research whether or not it reaches print. Annual consultations with department chairs produce individualized workload profiles that balance institutional goals with personal strengths, supported by transparent assessment tools for teaching and scholarly contributions. …

A Study Of Selected Faculty Handbooks: Policies On Promotion, Tenure, And Research, William W. Neher Oct 1990

A Study Of Selected Faculty Handbooks: Policies On Promotion, Tenure, And Research, William W. Neher

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

This article analyzes faculty handbooks from United States liberal arts colleges to illuminate how academic governance codifies promotion and tenure standards. Through systematic content analysis, the study maps language governing academic freedom, probationary service, degree expectations, and research productivity, comparing these provisions with AAUP statements. Results show pronounced diversity. Teaching effectiveness consistently holds primacy, while scholarship is flexibly defined to include creative activity, consulting, and curricular innovation. Many institutions adopt religious or financial clauses, impose tenure quotas, or offer renewable multi year contracts, thereby modifying the classic permanence model. Degree requirements range from earned doctorate to appropriate terminal credential, and …
