Just last year, Lynne M. Dearborn was a junior faculty member in architecture at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, working to persuade her department and the university that she deserved tenure.
Now she's an associate director at the School of Architecture at Illinois, responsible for recruiting and advising 200 graduate students.
Ms. Dearborn took on the new leadership role just two months after she earned tenure, in May 2010, and became an associate professor.
