4.0 out of 5 stars
timeless issues in running a uni department,
By
This review is from: Chairing the Academic Department: Leadership Among Peers (American Council on Education/Macmillan Series on Higher Education) (Hardcover)
Tucker offers a variety of advice to the newly appointed chair of a university department. On subjects like recruiting promising new researchers and lecturers. Or retaining the interest of students, so that they will take a wide range of courses offered by the department. And hopefully some will declare majoring in the department's field.Awkward subjects like evaluating the performance of lecturers is also covered. Including when they are coming up for tenure review. Here, the need for criteria that are as objective as possible is vital, to avoid various types of discrimination. Or charges thereof. Sure, the book was published well over 10 years ago. But none of its remarks are outdated. |
