Greetings!
Today's post contains Part 3 of my talk about issues facing college professors as we enter contract negotiations in June of 2014. Part 1 dealt with the history of the college system and changes to the level of government funding it receives. Part 2 dealt with the impact that government austerity is having on college students and faculty.
Part 3 focuses on the issue of academic freedom, and explores the many ways in which college faculty's lack of academic freedom protection impairs quality education, and enables management to reduce full time faculty. Ultimately, gaining academic freedom and intellectual property protection in the collective agreement is a crucial goal for faculty. Without it, there is little we can do to protect academic standards in the colleges today.
