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 $16,000 annually, without benefits, teaching as many as eight classes per year. Even undergraduates are being exploited as a low-cost, disposable workforce. Marc Bousquet, a major figure in the academic labor movement, exposes the seamy underbelly of higher education?a world where faculty, graduate students, and undergraduates work long hours for fast-food wages. Assessing the costs of higher education's corporatization on faculty and students at every level, How the University Works is urgent reading for anyone interested in the fate of the university. 410 0$aCultural front (Series) 606 $aUniversities and colleges$xEmployees$xSalaries, etc$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01161707 606 $aCollege teachers$xSalaries, etc$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00868160 606 $aUniversities and colleges$xEmployees$xSalaries, etc$zUnited States 606 $aCollege teachers$xSalaries, etc$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$2fast 615 7$aUniversities and colleges$xEmployees$xSalaries, etc. 615 7$aCollege teachers$xSalaries, etc. 615 7$aUniversities and colleges$xEmployees$xSalaries, etc. 615 7$aCollege teachers$xSalaries, etc. 676 $a331.2/8137812 700 $aBousquet$b Marc$f1963-$01468102 702 $aNelson$b Cary$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781840103321 996 $aHow the University Works$93679070 997 $aUNINA
