A total of 120 medical schools responded to a survey about their use of written student evaluations of faculty, anonymity policy, and use of the evaluations in faculty promotion, tenure, and salary decisions. Most currently use a system of regular, anonymous evaluation by students, and its continuation is recommended. (MSE)
