- Summary:
- Given the autonomous nature of graduate school faculties and the asymmetrical power relationship between faculty and students, there is a need to identify a normative structure for guiding graduate faculty behavior in relation to teaching and mentoring. In this work, Braxton (education, Vanderbilt U.), Proper (management, LIM College), and Bayer (emeritus, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State U.) seek to identify the inviolable and admonitory norms of graduate teaching and monitoring espoused by graduate faculties and examine their differences across different institutions, disciplines, personal attributes, and professional statures in order to see if there are core norms espoused across these various differences.
