Abstract
Since student evaluations are an important part of the tenure / promotion process, it is important to look at the way students rank / categorize faculty excellence. This study will compare and contrast date received from research on student perceptions and compare / contrast that data with academic research on faculty excellence. We will gather data from three different disciplines / cross sections of students (business, economics, and the humanities) and evaluate the qualities that students report being the most important with higher education / Scholarship of Teaching and Learning data in order to see how students differ / share commonalities with that research. The paper will share those areas of overlap but also point out qualities that students find most valuable for faculty to use in their own professional development.
