Eliminating Tenure Without Destroying Academic Freedom.
Magrath, C. Peter
Trusteeship, v5 n3 p16-19 May-Jun 1997
In higher education's new environment, colleges and universities must re-examine their tenure codes and practices and consider various forms of post-tenure review. Elimination of tenure does not necessarily end academic freedom. However, any new employment policies must emerge through a process of genuine discussion and negotiation among faculty members, administrators, and governing boards. (MSE)
