Description

Explore the transformative history of American higher education through this comprehensive examination of faculty professionalism and institutional change. Beginning in the twentieth century, this volume traces how American faculty evolved from mere employees into recognised professionals wielding significant influence over university operations. The book analyses key milestones including the formation of original faculty senates, the establishment of the American Association of University Professors, and the complex developments surrounding academic promotion and tenure. Through contributions from Christian K. Anderson, Zachary Haberler, and Richard F. Teichgraeber, readers gain insight into how American academics secured tenure protections, established academic freedom principles, and gained meaningful participation in university governance. This Routledge publication provides essential historical context for understanding the modern professoriate and the long struggle for professional recognition and institutional power that shaped contemporary higher education.
