ABSTRACT
Academia has become an increasingly common political target, particularly the institution of academic tenure, which many conservative politicians accuse of helping to perpetuate the ideological indoctrination of students. This study focuses on students' perceptions of professors' ideology by examining the link between student ideology, professor favorability, and perceptions of professors' ideology. We employ an original survey instrument and find that, rather than forming perceptions of their professors' political views based on their professors' actual positions, students tend to project their own ideology onto their professor, based on the extent to which they like their professor.
Discusses a personal return to the university in 1991 as the foundation Chair of Nursing at the Queen's U, Belfast, Ireland, in the context of a feminist vision of the academy. This appointment disrupted the existing power bases of nursing in Belfast, which were firmly in the control of men. The school was organized both to develop a strong theoretical basis for nursing knowledge & to increase nursing's status as a profession. The worlds of work & the academy met in the resistance of men to progressive proposals by women. Various examples demonstrate the patriarchal structure of nursing, both within & without the academy. It is suggested that the difficulties of establishing nursing in the academy are intimately related to the gender hierarchy in nursing generally. As such, advances in the former realm are dependent on changes in the latter. 18 References. D. M. Ryfe

After former Harvard president Claudine Gay's shocking testimony on Capitol Hill, her thin and undistinguished record of research came under scrutiny. In the weeks since probing into her work, Gay resigned. Unsurprisingly, the reaction to Gay's resignation has been mixed.

Described is the environment of professionalism & politicking that characterizes the modern U. No longer, if ever, a utopian retreat dedicated to the independent pursuit of knowledge, the modern academy is an intense bureaucratic business operating according to the competitive practices of the market. Survival & promotion in academe depend on reputation, which must be secured within the local department & within the field; different criteria prevail at different levels. Locally, promotion depends on collaboration; this rule obtains equally for leftists, who are diverted from their beliefs as they become useful to current department needs. Issued is a plea for a greater demonstration of integrity by leftist academics. D. Dunseath.

IT WILL BE NO NEWS THAT THE ACADEMY IS IN FLUX – THAT there is once again a 'crisis in the university'. It is easy to exaggerate this crisis – but today, in countries like the US A and Britain, it has special 'linked' features. In this article I explore some of these links, especially their 'political' dimension. Politics affect the universities (and other centres of higher education) in countless ways – through budgetary controls, through definition of 'national needs', and in some countries, though political control over appointments. The students, transient and often bewildered travellers through the university system, can be the harbingers, and sometimes the agents, of political change. The universities, again, are bound to reflect or resist old social values – and to create new ones. There are new problems for university 'governments'. They are all pressed to revise their rules of discipline – and some are faced with an internal 'anti-intellectual' opposition. The torments at Berkeley, the dismissal of Clerk Kerr in the aftermath of Governor Reagan's victory in California, the disclosures of the links between American student bodies and the CIA, the protests of British Vice-Chancellors over 'public accountability', the 'sit-in' in the LSE, the slogans of 'student power' – these are largely, and in some cases, wholly, political landmarks of the university crisis.
Edited book. Medievalism, the "continuing process of creating the middle ages", engenders formal medieval studies from a wide variety of popular interests in the middle ages. This volume accordingly explores the common ground between artistic and popular constructions of the middle ages and the study of the middle ages within the academy. Essays treat the genesis of medieval studies in early modern antiquarianism; the erection of academic medievalism through persistent, indeed perverse, appeals to heroic medieval manliness and attenuated female spirituality; the current jeopardy of the book (a medieval invention) in the face of technological assault; the politics of the nineteenth-century academy (F.W. Furnival and others); the editorial practice of Sidney Lanier; and the cultural canonization of Chaucer. [Amazon.com] ; https://digitalcommons.odu.edu/english_books/1015/thumbnail.jpg
