Abstract

Tenure acceptance rates were quite high at agricultural economics departments during 1984–88; 85 percent of all candidates were granted tenure. Half of the 39 departments surveyed here rejected no candidates, and only four departments accounted for almost half of all tenure rejections. More rejections came at the college and campus levels than at the departmental level. There was considerable variation among the tenure documents submitted by departments on most issues including criteria and standards, the definition of service, and the treatment of multidisciplinary work. The continuation of tenure, once granted, was virtually ignored.
