Biography
Michael S. Harris is an Associate Professor of Higher Education, and Director of the Center for Teaching Excellence (CTE) at Southern Methodist University, USA.
"How to Get Tenure is a wise, generous, and informed book that will benefit not only pre-tenure faculty, but also all of those who support and evaluate them. I wish I had this book when I was undergoing the tenure process; I would have benefited enormously from both its practical recommendations and its clear presentation of what can seem like a byzantine, mysterious process to tenure candidates."
—James M. Lang, Professor of English and Director of the D’Amour Center for Teaching Excellence, Assumption College, USA
