Bücher der Reihe The New Faculty Majority

As the debate regarding the increasing use of adjunct faculty in higher education continues to swirl, the voices of adjunct faculty themselves are rarely heard. Adjunct Faculty Voices gives a voice to this growing population, and shares the experiences and clear benefits adjuncts gain from having access to professional development opportunities.

Focuses on the status and work of full-time non-tenure-track faculty (NTTF) whose ranks are increasing as tenure track faculty (TTF) make up a smaller percentage of the professoriate. The authors ask, how can departments, institutions, and the profession do more to engage NTTF as full and active colleagues?

Offers higher education professionals a way to measure the degree of equality taking place in work environments across institutional settings. It frames the relevant issues and nationwide surveys that reveal the current professional landscape. The goal is to offer a standardized way to identify both unjust and equitable labour practices that impact adjunct faculty on campus.
