In the tenure and promotion case study presented in their book Complexities of Higher Education Administration, Mary Lou Higgerson and Susan S. Rehwaldt effectively summarize the expectations that commonly pertain to teaching, scholarship, and service; the manner in which candidates typically document their accomplishments in these areas; and the review procedures that institutions employ in measuring the fit between standards and achievement. What the authors suggest is that broad dissemination of such policies to all participants in the tenure and promotion process and a “common format for representing the supporting information” that candidates present to justify their worthiness for tenure or promotion “will help assure fairness in the decision-making process.”
