10 Wednesday, October 3, 1973 University Daily Kansan Tenure Still Hotly Disputed . . . From Page One by forcing them to make hard and important choices in their selection of faculty Tenure is granted to faculty members after a six-year probationary period. If a faculty member is refused tenure, he must leave the university within a year. The four KU committees universally rejected contract contracts and collective bargaining. A term contract is distinct from a tenure appointment because the contract is for a staged period of time. Tenure assures a professor of his job until retirement age or until the university can prove he has been incompetent or immoral. CONTRACT SYSTEMS ARE USED in many private schools in the eastern United States, primarily in New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts and Illinois. The KU Committee on Tenure Policy said the contract system "could result in arbitratsiveness at the one end and rigidity at the other." The Harvard study also opposed contracts. "in the absence of tenure," it said, and with only short-term "contractual relationships," it suggested a relationship to the university, the teachers' loyalty would give way to a faculty whose extranumeral commitments are so dominant that they have little to offer by a felt need to curry external favor." HOWEVER, THE OTHER alternative to tomure, called bargaining, has been used. The AAUJAAUJ but since AAUP endorsed collective bargaining, nearly 10,000 of its almost 100,000 members have quit the association. This has led to an enduring engagement as the reason for leaving. The National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers also endorses collective bargaining and serve as a center for bargaining. The joint AUAP-ACC report, however, said tenure shouldn't be a subject of collective bargaining. AAUP itself disaffaces with the jointly-sponsored report. The joint report said, "Collective bargaining should extend to academic settings." AAPU RESPONDED THEN "properly employed, collective bargaining could strengthen the concept of tenure" by including it "in a legally binding bilateral Many faculties turn to collective bargaining specifically to affect tenure However, the joint report predicted possible bad weather of tenure in a college as well as in a potato factory. But AAUP said tenure might be subject to limitation, modification or abolition if the rule is unchanged. "Collective bargaining," the Committee on Tenure Policy said, "in seeking to provide the greatest good to the greatest number" could tend to ignore the greatest challenges and could lead to a leveling of professional talents through a leveling of benefits." THE HARVARD REPORT said, "it seems likely that academic unionization would reduce rather than augment an institution's flexibility in faculty hiring. in the Harvard experience, it bears noting that the demands of a union in the 1930s contributed to a stricter definition of tenure and an abolition of the variety of extended-term appointments offered until then." Collective bargaining currently is used within state college systems in Nebraska, Iowa and Wisconsin. After an exhaustive study of choices other than tenure the KU committee recommends "fine tuning (rather) than a major change in teaching," said the professor of psychology and chairman of Illinois, Nearly 40 systems are found in New York alone. the Faculty Senate Committee on Rights, Privileges and Responsibilities. "There was simply not enough support from faculty members for radical chants, said Jackson, a member of the safety committee.
