This volume was written to help faculty and administrators navigate critical legal issues and avoid potential legal pitfalls in the USA. Steven G. Poskanzer explains the law as it pertains to faculty activities both inside and outside the academy, and includes both cases and decisions.
Just about every department chair and dean, certainly every provost and president, and an ever-increasing number of faculty find themselves asking - or being asked - such questions as: "Do we need to talk to our lawyer about this?"; "What do the attorneys say?"; and "Why didn't you get the lawyers involved before now?". Dealing with issues ranging from academic freedom to job security and faculty discipline, lawyers, legal requirements and lawsuits has become an established part of the apparatus of American higher education. This volume was written to help faculty and administrators navigate critical legal issues and avoid potential legal pitfalls. Drawing on his experience as university counsel, administrator and teacher at a number of institutions, Steven G. Poskanzer explains the law as it pertains to faculty activities both inside and outside the academy, including faculty roles as scholars, teachers, and members of institutional communities, as well as employees and public citizens. In each of these areas, he expands his discussion of cases and decisions to set out his own views both on the current status of the law and how it is likely to evolve.
