Cultural Front: How the University Works: Higher Education and the Low-Wage Nation (Paperback)
Product Description

Uncovers the labor exploitation occurring in universities across the country As much as we think we know about the modern university very little has been said about what it s like to work there. Instead of the high-wage high-profit world of knowledge work most campus employees--including the vast majority of faculty--really work in the low-wage low-profit sphere of the service economy. Tenure-track positions are at an all-time low with adjuncts and graduate students teaching the majority of courses. This super-exploited corps of disposable workers commonly earn fewer than $16 000 annually without benefits teaching as many as eight classes per year. Even undergraduates are being exploited as a low-cost disposable workforce.

Assessing the costs of higher education s corporatization on faculty and students at every level How the University Works is urgent reading for anyone interested in the fate of the university.
