Personality As A Criterion For Faculty Tenure: The Enemy It Is Us, Perry A. Zirkel

Cleveland State Law Review

Faculty tenure has been the subject of continuing concern and controversy in American higher education. Problems in this area, including the lack of definitive standards for evaluating tenure candidates, have been highlighted by the recent downturn in the economy and the resultant decline in both enrollment and employment in colleges and universities. This trend is actively demonstrated by the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals decision in Mayberry v. Dees. This Article advocates and proposes a more exacting judicial review of faculty tenure cases that are based on collegiality or other such personality criteria. Initially, the operational context of faculty tenure …

Making The Transition From A Large University To An Established Small College Department, William A. Ternent

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

The essay offers guidance for faculty moving from large university settings to established small college communication departments.

Straight Talk, Tough Issues: Tenure In Times Of Retrenchment, Alvin Goldberg

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Addressing tenure during periods of institutional retrenchment, this article explains tenure as a protection for academic freedom rather than simply a guarantee of economic security. It reviews common criticisms of tenure, including claims that it protects unproductive faculty or limits hiring flexibility, and distinguishes those concerns from cases involving incompetence, misconduct, or financial exigency. The article argues that although tenured faculty may legally be dismissed when financial exigency is properly established, doing so can weaken the conditions that sustain academic freedom. It cautions that program elimination during budget crises may threaten precisely the kinds of intellectual independence that tenure is …

Three Communication Responsibilities Concerning Sexual Harassment, Bonnie Wilson Buzza

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Framing sexual harassment as an issue of communication ethics and responsibility, this article argues that speech communication professionals should help create informed, sensitive, and practical discussion about harassment on campus. It distinguishes unwanted harassment from consensual attention, notes the role of power in many incidents, and explains that legal definitions do not fully resolve ethical responsibilities. The article identifies three communication responsibilities: discussing the issue honestly and supportively, telling a harasser directly when conduct is unwelcome, and encouraging potential harassers to consider audience, feedback, intent, and effect before speaking or acting. It emphasizes self esteem, assertiveness, institutional policy, grievance procedures, …

Sexual Harassment: A Protected Species On Campus?, Bonnie Gene Ritter

Association for Communication Administration Bulletin

Arguing from shared academic values rather than from legal documentation, this article examines how sexual harassment can be protected when academic freedom and collegiality are applied too broadly. It contends that faculty communities may use legitimate principles to shield behavior that harms students, colleagues, and institutional trust. The article identifies areas where vague professional standards can enable abuse of power, including mentoring, advising, recommendations, assistantships, funding, and grading. It also criticizes closed internal responses that delay policy development, resist outside inquiry, and protect offenders more than victims. The article contributes to academic ethics by urging clearer limits on professional freedom …
