Abstract	A large-scale, national survey of college and university professors was conducted in 1975, supported by the National Institute of Education. The data were collected from more than 3,500 faculty members, and include 400 separate items from each respondent. The study tapped faculty opinion on such matters as unionization, bargaining agents, the university's response to and priorities in austerity, the argument over affirmative action, equality vs. meritocracy in the university, the nature of the academic enterprise, perception of one's own role(s), the value placed on various faculty responsibilities, teaching versus research, the failings of the American university, domestic social, political, and economic matters, and foreign policy issues. Faculty views are presented in three perspectives: as compared with faculty opinion at earlier times, compared with public opinion, and analyzed by age, sex, and academic rank of the respondents.
