In the October 15th, 1990, issue of _U.S. News & World Report_ there was an article titled "A Return to Teaching?" that strongly suggests that the importance of good teaching is becoming more important in U.S. universities and that in the past people have (wrongly) only recognized and rewarded good research. Was this article referring to isolated incidents or is there really a trend in this direction? If it is a trend, how is it affecting the granting of tenure? Comments and the relating of any personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
