  • As the saying goes, don’t mourn, organize: groups such as The New Faculty Majority, The Campaign for the Future of Higher Education, and the AAUP are all doing important work on this front. Why not join?

    Makes me wonder if we should consider a specific initiative for our "contingent" faculty, or if our current attempts to be sensitive to the particular challenges they face are sufficient.

    Looks like an interesting & potentially very useful app (or at least the concept seems very useful - still includes a lot of limitations), I wonder what others are saying/think.
