Hermanowicz, Joseph C. – Journal of Higher Education, 2016
Achievement in the professions is situated relationally. Work comes to constitute contribution only by the judgments of colleagues. This is paradigmatically the case in science and scholarship, where colleagues not only sanction others but also create their legacy. Normatively, it would stand to reason that colleagues would be held in high regard;…

Douglass, John Aubrey – Center for Studies in Higher Education, 2016
In the face of the dominant World Class University rhetoric and ranking paradigm, most academic leaders and their academic communities have had difficulty conceptualizing and articulating their grander purpose and multiple engagements with society.

Lewis, Jamie; Bartlett, Andrew; Atkinson, Paul – Minerva: A Review of Science, Learning and Policy, 2016

For example, valorised…
