This study attempts to answer questions concerning what happens to student ratings of instruction after instructors are promoted from one professorial rank to another and, particularly, what happens when faculty exhaust security and material incentives, acquiring both tenure and the highest academic rank, that of full professor. It was found that ratings of instruction were not related to promotion in professorial rank either generally, or at any specific level.
