The article presents information on the conference, entitled "The Invitational Conference Workshop on Film/Video As an Artistic, Professional, and Academic Discipline," that held during August 16-19, 1978. The study of film has become one of the most popular activities for students in universities throughout the United States. A number of teaching programs have been established as discrete academic departments, while others are fragmented as sub-units of many other areas of study, including education, language, psychology, social sciences, art, radio-TV, and journalism. Surprisingly, many of the conference participants did not seem to understand what was going on in these various programs across the country, and the conference accomplished much in the sharing of information and debating the programs' approaches.
