Abstract
This paper seeks to contribute to the 2004 review of the Communication Arts Department curriculum at Divine Word University. It examines the way in which the curriculum has developed since the Department began offering courses in 1979, discussing both the practical and ideological influences that have shaped its construction. Originally the course focused on training students to work in the mainstream media. Now the Department would like to expand its curriculum in order to respond to the wider communication needs in the country. Planning the new curriculum is presented as an issue of leadership.
