On "Accuracy in Academia" and Academic Freedom.

Benjamin, Ernst; And Others

Academe, v71 n5 p1a Sep-Oct 1985

Accuracy in Academia (AIA) is seen as a threat to academic freedom. Its activity is opposed by the American Association of University Professors for the following reasons: *AIA monitors will inhibit academic freedom, quality of academic performance should be judged through peer evaluation, and AIA has a narrow mindset.
