The grandfather clause is practiced in many businesses,real estate, and other 
professional areas.
Simply,if one is grandfathered in,one still falls under the old rules that were 
in existence at the time one  originally contracted.I know of some cases where 
the grandfather  clause in the past has been upheld.For example,if a terminal 
masters was all that was required for tenure track at the time of appointment 
then, a change in  the requirements  in the future years, may not apply to the 
previous faculty who can claim to be grandfathered in. It is my understanding 
that tenure has little to do with one's credentials although credentials could 
affect one's salary.Just curious if some tipsters have known faculty without a 
PhD who have been grandfathered in and have higher ranks and status.
What ya think about the grandfather clause in academia? Btw,is there a 
grandmother clause?
Anyone on Tips who was grandfathered or grandmothered in? Any librarian,MFA or 
ED.D making higher salary than you?
