DESCRIPTION:Title: Changes to Evaluation Critiera for Faculty Hiring and
	 Promotion\nSpeaker: Fred Schneider\nAbstract: The Computing Research
	 Association (CRA) comprises all Computer\nScience Ph.D. granting
	 departments in North America and many\nindustrial labs. CRA provides a
	 forum for discussions about the health\nof our field\, and it represents
	 computing research to congress and the\nexecutive branch.\n\nIn Febrary
	 2015\, CRA issued a \"Best Practices Memo\" that advocates for\nchanges
	 to the way that publications are evaluated for hiring and\npromotion. 
	 The 3-page memo is the product of a blue-ribbon committee\,\nwho met and
	 deliberated over a 2 year period.  We discuss what the\nmemo says\, give
	 a historical context\, and speculate about the future.\n\nThe memo is
	 available on-line\, and you'll want to look it over before\nthe
