Mooney, Carolyn J.
Chronicle of Higher Education, v37 n34 pA15-17 May 8 1991
A national survey examined opinions of college faculty (n=35,478) on a broad range of issues, including teaching, values, political orientation, and quality of professors' personal lives. Respondents feel a conflict between teaching and research roles, believe their students are badly prepared academically, and think their campuses place a high priority on institutional prestige.
