The Chronicle: AAUP Proposes Giving Contingent Faculty a Much Bigger Role in College Governance

In a draft report being released today, the association argues that colleges are ill-served by policies that exclude most instructors who are off the tenure track from governance activities, and offers a list of recommendations for giving contingent faculty members much more say in the affairs of the institutions that employ them.
