Description: |
This work examines the threat to academic freedom and tenure within higher education institutions from both outside and inside sources, and discusses the ethical justification in their implementation. It argues that academic freedom and tenure benefits both institutions and society. |
Synopsis: |
Academic freedom and tenure, both cherished institutions of higher education, are currently under attack by many both outside and within the academy. Richard DeGeorge argues that they can be defended on ethical grounds only if they are joined with appropriate accountability, publicly articulated and defended standards, and conscientious enforcement of these standards by academic institutions and the members of the academic community. |
