Abstract	In this essay, the authors begin by examining and challenging the way in which faculty vitality has been operationalized in the past, arguing for the value of institution-specific analysis of the faculty vitality issue. They then propose alternative models for understanding previously unexplored aspects of faculty vitality, drawing on research in organizational behavior and adult development. They discuss the institutional implications of vital, but disengaged senior faculty members, and suggest steps to prevent or address this problem. They end with a call for future research that broadens the definition of faculty vitality and that addresses the distinctive cultures of particular institutions. (Contains 4 notes.) (ERIC).
