- W2270479970 abstract "A departmental chair is often asked what might be needed to improve the unit and to move it to the next level. The question can be applied to everything from recruiting faculty members to graduate training to renovations. The question seems to be direct and appropriate because it implies “getting better.” But along the way to getting better are tactical questions about how to get there, criteria for assessing change, and deeper strategic questions about where “there” is. Universities have institutional needs and values, and since World War II, especially in the United States, leading research universities have evolved a shared sense of what these are (Abram et al. 1970, Guston and Keniston 1994, Kerr 1995, Cozzens 1996, Duderstadt 1999, Rosenzweig 1999, Savage 1999). But faculty members, university administrators, and the public may honestly disagree about how much an institution’s interests supersede individual and departmental interests. Is the university a public service provider, an economic engine, or a haven for intellectuals trusted to justify society’s investment? A faculty member who asks “What shall I do today?” does not mean “What do you want me to do today?” in the sense that a department chair would literally make daily assignments, but “What do I want to do?” Faculty members face an increasing number of daily choices that make the answer less obvious. Sharpening individual skills, advancing a discipline’s scholarship, working with students, administering the department, developing university programs, enhancing economic development, and engaging in public outreach all compete for attention. But what values determine a faculty member’s answer? How are these values developed, and how are they passed on to the next generation of scholars? Faculty members and their departments are frequently the friction point for conflict between individual goals and institutional goals. Tensions between and among individual, departmental, university, public, and national interests are common at the unit level.As leader of the department’s faculty but" @default.
