Business Outlook

Pros

The pros for now outweigh the cons but the trajectory had been slowly and steadily downward. Considerable faculty autonomy. For now acceptable benefits. Institution as a whole support tenure and academic freedom. Significant strides in supporting diversity. Good endowment. Good facilities.

Cons

The cons are shared with many similar institutions, unfortunately. Stagnant compensation. Nontransparent compensation practices. Declining selectivity in admission. Difficulties with retention of employee talent. Extremely progressive ethos. Progressive biases in hiring. Occasional nepotism. Subtle erosion of shared governance. Declining availability of health services in the area.
