Untilrecently, practices used to evaluate faculty research and teaching accomplishments had notaligned well with either the OSU promotion and tenure (P&T) Guidelines or the COE strategicplan. Such misalignment made it difficult to ensure a fair and proper evaluation and also limitedany potential for guiding faculty energy in ways that best serve our mission-specific activities.For example, academia has institutionalized a number of barriers to collaboration, and these areespecially apparent to untenured faculty.
