This new section for UFF-UF will report on and share peer-reviewed scholarly research findings about teaching, research, and administrative climates in higher education. The aim of this column is to bring empirical research to bear on discussions about the life of the University of Florida professoriate. The Current Research in Higher Education Working Group editors welcome suggestions of research and contributions from all UFF-UF members (email currentresearch@uff-uf.org).

The opinions expressed in these materials are those of the working group, and are not necessarily the positions of UFF-UF.
