The Questions of Tenure

Know about the book -

The Questions of Tenure is written by Richard P. Chait and published by Harvard University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0674029348 (ISBN 10) and 9780674029347 (ISBN 13).

Chait and his colleagues offer the results of their research on key empirical questions and conclude that no single tenure system exists. Still, since no academic reward carries the cachet of tenure, few institutions will initiate significant changes without either powerful external pressures or persistent demands from new or disgruntled faculty.
