摘要：Some faculty and staff members be lieve that deans have more fun, even though most of them will quickly say that they would never take the job. They see all the myriad of tasks and issues that must be dealt with. Of those of us who do take the position of dean, there are at least three paths, ¡°inside¡± faculty who are asked to move up, now called ¡°accidental¡± deans, and those who plan the steps from faculty through chair, possibly MBA director and/or associate dean to the head office, whether internal or externally. The third route is from corporate to academe. Many academics take bets on how long those deans will last in the unfamiliar world of academic governance. Some deans progress to provost and president, but most of us enjoy the confines of our familiar worlds of our discipline, here, business.
