Abstract	A program (entitled "Across the Curriculum") that integrated speaking, listening, reading, and writing instruction into content areas across the curriculum, in Central College, Iowa, is described in this paper. The paper first discusses the formation of the program, which was predicated on a desire shared by faculty members in all academic areas to improve the communication skills of all students. It then reviews various aspects of the program, including the summer workshops in which faculty members learned basic concepts for teaching communication skills and reworked their course syllabi to include more communication experiences. Finally, the paper summarizes the findings of a three-year evaluation study of the program showing its success. (FL)
