    72 leaves. Advisor: Dr.a Charles RowleyThe problem. Since the 1968 study by Drake University, the Department of School Administration, College of Education, and the 1970 survey by Richard Dexter, no action has been taken to reorganize any of the five school districts in East Story County which includes the Collins and Maxwell School Districts. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of a Collins-Maxwell reorganization. Procedure. A questionnaire was mailed to the board members of the Collins and Maxwell School Districts and an interview was held with their respective superintendents. Findings. Enrollments are decreasing in the Collins and Maxwell School Districts according to projected enrollments. The curriculums of both districts stress academics and do not offer enough units of credits in order to provide students with a comprehensive education. A majority of the board members indicated that they thought reorganization is needed and that it would benefit the students' possibility of a better education. Conclusions. Enrollments in the Collins and Maxwell School Districts will continue to decrease. A reorganization of the Collins and Maxwell Schools would create a substantial increase in the amount of units of credits the students could be offered, therefore providing a comprehensive education. Recommendations. Each district must face the reality of declining enrollment and the effect it will have on its educational program. Reorganization should be considered as a means to improve educational programs and not to cut costs. The Collins and Maxwell School Districts should reorganize in the very near future with consideration given to the possibility of including a third district

    The theatre programme: A public discourse at a staging of Maxwell Anderson's Anne of the Thousand Days

    No full text
    The term ’public discourses’ describes a range of texts or signifiers that inform the conditions of audience reception. Public discourses include myriad written, visual, spatial, auditory and sensory texts experienced by an audience at a particular theatrical event. Ric Knowles first introduced this term in 'Reading the Material Theatre'. Whereas Knowles was interested in how public discourses modified the conditions of reception, my broader research is to explore how these public discourses become texts in themselves. This paper will discuss one public discourse, the theatre programme, as it related to a staging of Maxwell Anderson’s Anne of the Thousand Days at the Brisbane Powerhouse in June 2006. The significance of the programme was explored at symposiums held after the performances. Audiences generally view programmes before a performance and after a performance and its significance as a written text changes. The program became a sign vehicle that worked to expound and explicate the meaning of the play for the audience. This public discourse became a significant written text contributing to the textual whole of the theatrical event.The conference was sponsored by A.D.S.A., the Department of Performance Studies, the School of Letters, Arts and Media, and the Faculty of Arts of the University of Sydney
