| 520 | |a This report examines the role of the college dean or department head in relation to legal issues in higher education. The first section offers principles of the law, the courts, and counsel. It addresses types of legal issues, internal and external sources of the law, deference to academic and behavioral decisions, the distinction between public and private institutions, the attorney-client relationship, pretrial and trial procedures, and individual or institutional liability. Section 2 covers the employment relationship with faculty and staff. It discusses foundations of the relationship between employer and employee, hiring and promotion decisions (equal protection and due process), conduct and misconduct on the job, and dismissal and retirement of faculty and staff. Student issues in the academic setting is the focus of section 3, which examines contract, consumerism, and citizenship; misconduct and discipline; admissions and access; students' records; expression, organizations, and publications; and institutional liability. The final section is about regulation and oversight in the school and department. Specifically addressed are copyrights, trademarks, and patent law; openness and disclosure; family and medical leave; research and teaching; taxation and fundraising; and accreditation. (Contains approximately 375 references.) (DB) | ||
