<p>barrons, the policy is quite similar in most universities that are comparable to UW Madison. I think very highly of my own colleagues there, as teachers as well as researchers. However, listing research in category (2) is purely for public consumption. A really bad teacher could lose tenure because of poor teaching. However, that would be “really bad” as judged by colleagues, and not by CC standards. </p>
<p>Generally, policies like this are more honored in the breach than in the observance, at least if you are thinking that items (1) and (2) are weighted equally.</p>
