ABSTRACT. The authors performed a content analysis of intellectual contribution portfolios of accounting faculty at various business schools that Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business International recently accredited. The results showed a significant divergence in faculty research (e.g., areas, topics) and their teaching assignments. This divergence is problematic because such misalignment would indicate that current measures of faculty currency fail to assess whether accounting instructors are adequately prepared to teach in their assigned teaching areas.
