SynopsisA faculty member publishes an article without offering coauthorship to a graduate assistant who has made a substantial conceptual or methodological contribution to the article. A faculty member does not permit graduate students to express viewpoints different from her own. A graduate student close to finishing his dissertation cannot reach his traveling advisor, a circumstance that jeopardizes his degree. These and other examples of faculty misconduct -- and how to avoid them -- are the subject of this book.A companion to Faculty Misconduct in Collegiate Teaching, this volume focuses on graduate teaching and mentoring. From data collected through faculty surveys, the authors describe behaviors associated with graduate teaching considered inappropriate and in violation of good teaching practices. They then derive a normative structure that consists of five inviolable (warranting severe punishment) and eight admonitory (reprovable, but less severe) proscriptive norms to help graduate faculty make informed and acceptable professional choices. The authors discuss the various ways in which faculty members acquire the norms of teaching and mentoring, including the graduate school socialization process, role models, disciplinary codes of ethics, and scholarship about the professoriate and professional performance. They also analyze the rich data gleaned from the faculty surveys and track how these norms are understood and interpreted across academic disciplines and influenced by such factors as gender, citizenship, age, academic rank, tenure, research activity, and administrative experience. Professors Behaving Badly outlines institutional and disciplinary conditions that define normative behavior and recommends best practices to discourage future faculty misconduct.
