Education, No. 10.

YEAR PUBLISHED: 1975
NOTE: 107 p.;Papers presented at a seminar in Higher
Education (University of Denver, Boulder, Colorado, 1975)

ABSTRACT: This collection of nine papers grew out of a
series of presentations made by advanced graduate students
participating in a seminar in Higher Education during the
spring term, 1975. The purpose of the seminar is to afford
advanced students an opportunity to explore in depth the
topics considered in the more general way in the course
sequence and in other courses in Higher Education. The
papers presented in the seminar were divided into three
broad areas: collective bargaining; tenure; and faculty
development. Papers presented covered: (1) an overview of
collective bargaining; (2) collective bargaining in
relation
to part-time faculty; (3) the role of statewide governing
boards in local community college collective bargaining;
(4)
women, college faculty, and tenure; (5) faculty tenure in
a
period of financial crisis; (6) conflict between tenure and
affirmative action; (7) perspectives and issues of faculty
development; (8) the teaching aspect of faculty
development;
and (9) West German University reform and the university
professor. (Author/KE)
