The Common Law of the Academic Profession: An Assessment.
Leslie, David W.
Review of Higher Education, v10 n4 p295-318 Sum 1987
The academic common law may soon vanish, not as a result of court action but due to the American Association of University Professors's declining role in defending the common law of academic employment. The profession is challenged to maintain its independence from external control by reconsidering its own common law. (Author/MLW)
