Welcome to the web site of the Western States Communication Association (WSCA), founded in 1929.  WSCA is a not-for-profit educational association of scholars, teachers, and students of communication with over 1,000 members not only from the western states but from all parts of the United States and countries around the world.
 
WSCA publishes two scholarly journals–Western Journal of Communication and Communication Reports–as well as an almost-monthly newsletter, WSCA News.  Follow the links under Publications to learn more about the journals and the newsletter.

WSCA also hosts an annual convention.  We’ll meet next in Monterey, California, February 18-22, 2011, to explore the theme “Communication and Community .”  WSCA conventions provide wonderful opportunities to hear about and discuss current issues in communication while also offering opportunities for networking and socializing.  More information about the 2011 convention will be available on this site in May under Conventions, WSCA 2011 Monterey.

Thanks again for visiting the WSCA website.  You’re invited to take a few minutes to learn about our history, leadership, and member benefits by following the relevant links.  For specific questions about membership, dues, and convention information, please contact our Executive Director, John Reinard. 

Best regards,

Heather Hundley, President, WSCA
