Faculty Handbooks: Southern Methodist University.

This 1973 edition of the faculty handbook is divided into four main sections on history and goals, organization and administration, faculty and faculty policies, and faculty-student relations. The school's administrative structure is detailed, with descriptions given of its various schools, boards, and councils. Faculty policies are presented with regard to selection and employment, tenure, professional ethics, travel, teaching loads, raises, retirement, faculty evaluations, leaves, and responsibilities. Faculty-student relations are considered in terms of academic dishonesty, attendance, testing and grading, assisting students, and student problems. Appendices are included which deal with faculty benefits and services such as insurance, divisions and programs of the university, and university bylaws. (LBH)
