NCA member

Needed division!

I am a veteran and think this is a great idea

This would be a valuable addition to the work of NCA

I deeply respect the mission of this division and would welcome its presence at NCA.

This is an important division to add that will enhance member experiences.

None

All six Senior Service Colleges and most Mid-career PME (Professional Military Education) institutions are building/enhancing Communication Centers with a focus on oral and written communication (aka Rhetoric). As is increasingly recognized at the Army War College, "The strategic leader who can't communicate is akin to a weapon without ammunition . . . mostly useless." Past time for NCA and academic communication professional to engage.

Jeni, thank you for creating this petition!

This is a valuable effort and an important growing area of scholarship.

As someone who studies rhetoric, war, and media, I support the creation of this division.

Long over due. We desperately need this!

Fingers crossed

Thank you for initiating this important move on behalf of active and non-active military service members!

I appreciate the need for a place where the full range of approaches and perspectives on the role that the military and its members play, locally, nationally, and globally, can find a home.

This would be a really important addition to the association. As a communication scholar and military family member, I think this will fill a crucial gap in the association's structure.

As a Post 9/11 GI Bill recipient, US Army retiree, and Communication Studies scholar interested in military culture and veteran identity, I wholeheartedly endorse this proposed addition to NCA and look forward to its establishment with great enthusiasm!
