Communications skills and a brief rapprochement of rhetoricians

Sharon Crowley Arizona State University

Abstract

Abstract During the late 1940s and early 1950s a window of opportunity opened briefly for a rapprochement between rhetoricians in Speech departments with teachers of English. Members of these groups jointly developed first‐year courses in communication skills that had a distinct rhetorical flavor. Communication skills programs were short‐lived, however, because powerful disciplinary forces put an end to them.
