This Christmas: ask not what your admin gives to you —
ask what you can give to the admin. All year round.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fO4uYSWn0C8

Because nothing says #ethics and #integrity better than unpaid #research ...
In what way does pressuring freelance lecturers on teaching-only contracts to provide unpaid research for accreditation metrics, reflect the principle of Ethics and Integrity that John Cabot University claims to uphold?

"The working conditions of the teachers are the learning conditions of the students."
Professors employed on teaching-only contracts should not be pressured to publish #research needed for #accreditation, under threat of losing their teaching jobs.

Thanks-asking at John Cabot University Frank J. Guarini School of Business: Instead of #thanksgiving for the unpaid #research needed for #accreditation, maybe start paying the teaching-only lecturers who produce it. Give them something to be thankful for!

"Thea was exploited by a system that consumes thoughtful, committed academics like our beloved friend, even as it is reluctant to admit it."

US #universities are nearly all in the red, financially.
1. Yes, funding #publicEducation costs money
2. Research shows increasing #tuition costs are overwhelmingly because of (a) state reductions in per-student financing and (b) #AdministrativeBloat
Naturally, every upper administrator (and #university system) thinks the obvious fix is to cut #faculty, destroy #tenure, increase class sizes, remove majors, hire #adjuncts, and otherwise degrade academics--you know, the thing universities are about.
MY RADICAL SUGGESTIONS:
1. Fucking fund universities, you cowards
2. If you need to cut costs, start with the things that don't contribute to academics, like (a) administrative costs, (b) sports programs, (c) police and other non-academic programs using resources
3. Stop letting people in suits who know nothing about education and/or about business (and definitely about the ways universities and businesses are and are not similar) make the decisions

Just want to re-introduce myself since so many of you have responded to my posting an article about Texas going after #booksellers #bookstores in an effort to #ban #books. I’m here because I want to be on the record against #censorship, for #FirstAmendment #FreePress #FreeSpeech; for #academicfreedom and the rights of #adjuncts. So welcome and I hope you can put up w/occasional attempts at self-promotion. (I write and occasionally publish stuff.) Peace out.

The Hamline controversy and the real threat to academic freedom
https://www.aljazeera.com/opinions/2023/1/22/the-hamline-controversy-and-the-real-threat-to-academic-freedom
Xclnt analysis, Marxist in its insights (no idea whether author is self-identified as a Marxist). Note it's consistent with trends in US towards greater exploitation, greater austerity, for working people--including in academia. Capitalism makes us all poorer--save for the already very rich.

An interesting piece that's making the rounds, developing some important points. It's about History but relevant to other fields. What's missing is discussion of the lack of solidarity TT profs often show towards adjuncts all the time, not just in strikes
