Business Management has Vision

The Business Management Communications Committee has had
strong support from within the department this year regarding
implementation of “Writing Across the Curriculum” (WAC) in
its courses. Bruce Moseley, Hilary Clark, John Barber, Cam
McKie, and Jessie Pendygrasse have met during Spring term and
as a result, the BSMG faculty has adopted a “Vision Statement”
which will appear on all course outlines in BSMG this fall. The
statement reads:

“The graduating student shall demonstrate competence in the use
of the English language, interpersonal skills, and analytical
thinking.”

To initiate faculty development in WAC, several workships were
held in May before and after the four-day WAC meetings. Reid
Gilbert from Humanities chose basic grammar and English usage
as his learning experience. Participants had fun on a computer
and enjoyed Reid’s wit throughout the workshop. Bev Reid from
Communications led a workshop in the Dynamics lab where
faculty marked oral presentations and compared grades under
Bev’s excellent supervision. Several faculty members were
filmed while telling an anecdote from their experiences, then the
film was replayed for the group.
