Session Description
In awarding tenure the university expresses its commitment to recognizing and rewarding professional achievement and to assuring academic freedom. In accepting tenure the faculty member expresses a commitment to the academic quality of the institution and enhancing the university’s programs.
Toward arriving at an intersection of these interests, and being awarded tenure, it makes good sense for faculty members to develop and employ a roadmap for success. This is especially important given that mind reading is an imperfect form of communication and you wish to communicate clearly with your peer committees and unit administrators. This session will address strategies for faculty to advance, communicate, and navigate along this path.
