"Faculty Are Not Representative of the American Public
The majority of faculty are liberal and Democratic, and therefore
the full spectrum of beliefs and political behavior of the American
public is underrepresented on campus."
"Trustees Should Take a More Active Role in Tenure Decisions
Trustees and other stakeholders need to play an increased role
in tenure decisions. Currently, trustees, with rare exception, merely
rubber-stamp tenure recommendations, a lifetime employment contract.
This is an abdication of fiduciary responsibility, even though
many trustees may believe that protecting academic freedom requires
them to always defer to the faculty."
