...Next, the candidate must compile a detailed dossier with 23 different elements. The professor must include in the dossier a copy of every academic work she’s ever authored, including those that have yet to see a publisher.

...That interaction, and the politicization of the government information machine under Campbell, goes to the heart of his darkest period.

...continues the GSAS effort this year to further professionalize the experience of teaching fellows. In December, the Faculty passed legislation that would require all teaching fellows to be evaluated by their undergraduate students even in cases where professors refuse to be evaluated. Now, the committee plans on implementing dossiers for graduate students so that they can demonstrate their teaching experience to people hiring inside and outside Harvard. A dossier would include documentation of experience as well as awards and honors. Graduate students have asked for a more formalized system, Skocpol said. Among its other recommendations, the report encourages greater faculty...
