CCA Secretary
To: elchorro at googlegroups.com
Greetings Fellow Part-timers and all those who are CCA Members,
With David Milroy's recent resignation as the CCA Secretary, I (at his and
John Martin's encouragement) have decided to run for the vacant seat. The
election is next weekend at the CCA Spring Conference. I've put together
some flyers that won't be in color, as they are here, but they will be
printed in a different color for each flyer. If you or a colleague or a
member of your CCA chapter will be going to the conference, I would greatly
appreciate if you shared the attachments with them.
In addition, I don't want to pressure anyone into supporting me, but would
appreciate your support if you are willing to offer it. Mine is a
grassroots campaign, especially since I've no money to run it.
If you are attending and want to help by distributing flyers on the
tables before dinner on Friday night and at breakfast and lunch on Saturday,
I will be very appreciative.
Currently, the candidates for Secretary are Jessica Morris (Mendocino
PT/Counselor), DeWayne Schaffer (Long Beach FT/Counselor), and myself
(Riverside and San Bernardino PT/English), so it's going to be intense. If
you have any ideas or suggestions, please feel free to forward them to me.
Thanks for all of your support.
John

Dear Colleagues:
Incredible, inspiring movements in support of justice and democracy have
swept our country and others over the last couple of months. At the same
time, unimaginable tragedy has befallen the residents of Japan, and
regularly occurs both locally and globally every day. I sometimes find it
difficult to keep perspective in the face of events that are so large in
scope and significance. The project in which we are engaged - to establish
fair and ethical working conditions for all higher education faculty in the
US - can seem trivial when compared to the life-or-death situations of
people in our communities and around the world. Indeed, when we take our
message beyond our campuses, we often find that people respond to us in
exactly this way. Expecting support from members of our communities, we are
hurt when we hear instead, "You should be glad you have a job rather than
complaining about your pay."
This is exactly what happened when NFM VP Matt Williams and I published an
op-ed in the Cleveland Plain Dealer on Feb.
27<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=s689a4cab&et=1104895291634&s=497&e=0019ZDrsy3lhqyyZVFnFm7OGvl1951K1fghXBG2RI_TWLjpljOTDpX8uLBu5KQc2fQ_ELSRMPEaLPqKjYpvwyoX2ggq8KEgdGCvHlq4Yyh4fey4cAjJns01SpomelbQ0X2uEUI5cb5s-tfmtGnDvSCzTTtLX0D_oWgrlGn4xzVkoFZTJL7TesCc4sOSAcRaNqllKHeZlolGqhA=>:
we laid out what we thought was a crystal clear explanation of the reasons
contingent faculty working conditions need reform, and still received
comments that betrayed deep misunderstanding of the reality and value of
higher education.
Of course, we also know that we reached many new audiences - we were
gratified to hear from many of them, and are inspired to continue our
campaign to spread our message into the community. However, in doing so, we
need to take the misunderstanding seriously and respond to the rebuffs
exactly as we would to students in our classrooms and colleagues on our
campuses: by being understanding and open, but also by challenging everyone
to think more deeply and critically.
As educators, we have a responsibility to help our students and communities
to understand the ways in which seemingly trivial and insignificant choices
and events have ripple effects that affect neighbors near and far, for good
and ill. The historic events in Wisconsin, for example, have reminded the
country that no matter our experience or opinion of the labor movement, it
was instrumental in securing most of the basic, humane workplace conditions
that the fortunate among us currently take for granted. Current debates over
training versus education desperately need our voices; we need to bolster
the position of those who understand the critical role of the education we
provide.
Likewise, struggles for democracy and human rights, wherever they take
place, remind us how important it is to educate by example. This is the
thesis of Steve Street's and my essay (and of others) in the current issue
of Liberal Education;<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=s689a4cab&et=1104895291634&s=497&e=0019ZDrsy3lhqyqV33pkrFyq-t0U3x1DzPiTi6s6WTYvFYRv1Tvh_O0O-sPcho1Xv51JCCUSmAyJhZ1yWhLa3PvLI51p4I6YRbHolncwjsPlX208WYRelB8g_eO14M7O4EYGfKvIfvjGQtU7vaJRDjyMA==>our
students and communities need to see how much we care about these principles
by seeing us standing up for them by standing up for our students and
ourselves -- as we tried to do by attending the recent regional community
college summit in Indianapolis, which we report on
here<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=s689a4cab&et=1104895291634&s=497&e=0019ZDrsy3lhqyQla7E_zlITuJc_U7VBuaVtF3aCdmTsJWwXpvrC-8gv1AwgSYPAcR9ZoVXwBwcIkqk-DmDZKyCRdYNn8PO5JJ-hpLE6yV54HBOyFhF-wFiYgFrH4npbivG0-v1b9l69B53ioFIAm992YmfRyxqjf3rjsTGD7k03uqXouPAaaB-wPJdVQ-5E1fP>.
That's why this month I am proud to make several important announcements on
behalf of NFM.
First, I am pleased to report that The Marguerite Casey Foundation
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=s689a4cab&et=1104895291634&s=497&e=0019ZDrsy3lhqxBPhukEOlH8uK8uXX6hYZZKj4MEBE23kBrrkkyXhmZXm_e5MKnfJxMLJbSgeXfN_Sn2XyOclbYcKCIhxr-c0qf3l-L6aiLWWqeitKd4MFnVQ==>in
Seattle, Washington has awarded $25,000 to our nascent 501c(3) organization,
New Faculty Majority Foundation, to support its ability to provide
programming complementary to that of NFM. The NFM Foundation's goal for the
next year is to 1) build capacity in ways that include employing staff,
seeding further fundraising efforts and expanding its base of stakeholders;
2) begin identifying and gathering essential data currently missing from
research on adjunct and contingent faculty; and 3) sponsor a summit meeting
in Washington, DC, tentatively titled "Confronting Contingency."
"Confronting Contingency," to be held January 28, 2012, will convene
contingent faculty, tenure-stream faculty, students, parents, college and
university administrators, faculty union leaders, accreditors, state and
federal policymakers, philanthropists, business leaders, and other
stakeholders in higher education to focus exclusively on the problem of
hiring higher education faculty on a contingent basis. The summit meeting
will 1) educate the public about the effects of adjunct and contingent
faculty working conditions on the quality of higher education and the
teaching profession; 2) examine practical, ethical solutions and solicit a
broad-based commitment to reform; and 3) provide adjunct and contingent
faculty with the opportunity to engage in self-advocacy on an unprecedented
national scale. We expect this event to be the first in a series that will
keep higher education focused not only on the problem of contingency but,
more importantly, on the need to commit to and implement real change.
Further information on the summit will soon be available at the NFM
Foundation's website:
nfmfoundation.org<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=s689a4cab&et=1104895291634&s=497&e=0019ZDrsy3lhqwSokEFWOZWuNep44R9dYRN9QaVtQfFAVl1nzb-nIIrxWlgyhyKJnu7sYVq24ExRPKrczREUcfLBM-n71LseFCA5zyIvq9oHH8nluCMNUG9UA==>.
Please save the date and plan on attending either virtually or in person -
we intend to ensure that contingent faculty participation reflects our
service in and importance to higher
education.<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=s689a4cab&et=1104895291634&s=497&e=0019ZDrsy3lhqywC2G2hc__h4ZEwBzB8nAzk8vshXx5jahonChwlVlVNy42IeW0rm5CnWuI7Qfi3d2QQ8ZvesnWq0aMQyfvT1Fx_4slhyZj91VoDv2_YpRl2ww9OjQEHmjq9Lpr3TnQfKk=>
Second, NFM proper, which is a 501(c)6 organization, is launching the first
of several fundraising efforts designed to support activities and projects
like the Unemployment Compensation Initiative, chapter building and support,
and communications. We are selling organic, fair trade coffee, which we
have called (nudge, nudge)"Fair Trade in Education (FTE)
Coffee<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=s689a4cab&et=1104895291634&s=497&e=0019ZDrsy3lhqywC2G2hc__h4ZEwBzB8nAzk8vshXx5jahonChwlVlVNy42IeW0rm5CnWuI7Qfi3d2QQ8ZvesnWq0aMQyfvT1Fx_4slhyZj91VoDv2_YpRl2ww9OjQEHmjq9Lpr3TnQfKk=>"
and will be opening online stores

sell NFM t-shirts, mugs, bags, bumper stickers, and more. Please see the
announcement in this issue and consider supporting NFM with materials that
will also spread the word about our efforts.
Finally, and most importantly, you can help by writing your own letters and
op-eds, sponsoring teach-ins, and attending as many public events as you can
to educate your community about the need for faculty employment reform in
higher education.
As we work to support ourselves as an organization - applying for grants,
fundraising, establishing our presence regionally and nationally - the
national and international news of the last couple of months, both positive
and negative, has energized us. The scale of change is breathtaking. Across
the world, men and women who are proud to represent themselves are defying
the status quo, and throughout the world people are putting self-interest
aside to help and show solidarity with their neighbors. We don't believe it
is too dramatic to say that the world we inhabit is a reflection of the one
beyond our campuses:the choice is between a still more reckless form of the
present, where only a few individuals profit and the rest are left to
survive any way they can, and an honest, fair-minded, and sustainable
future. We look forward to working with and for you in the coming year.
Best wishes,

New Jersey County College Adjuncts Federate
By Bill Lipkin,
In the Fall of 2002, after many years of suffering as an adjunct at
Union County College, I made a giant leap and contacted the American
Federation of Teachers (AFT) to see if it would be possible to unionize. Two
years earlier I had reached out to the American Association of University
Professors (AAUP), who represented the full time faculty at the College, and
they were not interested. The reception I received from AFT was completely
different. They responded and offered all kinds of help to get us organized.
I later found out that AFT was in the midst of organizing County Colleges in
New Jersey and therefore welcomed my inquiries.
During the next year of organizing I worked very hard with AFT Staff Reps,
and an occasional adjunct who would take the time to help, to create our
local. I was determined to get the union up and running and by the Spring of
2003 we were chartered and began to operate under AFT.
The only other strong independent adjunct County College local was Camden
County College, which had been organized a few years earlier. Their
president was Elaine Bobrove. Elaine and I developed a strong working
relationship due to our determination to better the working conditions and
pay for adjuncts. AFT National offered to help us toward that goal, and
promised to support us, if we would agree to form a Federation of County
College Locals under one umbrella. AFT saw this as an easier way to organize
at other County Colleges and to be assured that monthly per caps would be
paid and that there was a centralized adjunct local in the state. In order
for this to happen the five, already established adjunct locals would have
to turn over their treasury to the Federation and agree to all deductions
from payrolls being submitted directly to the Federation. The locals would
then have to request money from the Federation for any expenses they had,
such as meeting expenses, organizing expenses, stipends, postage etc. This
was totally unacceptable to Elaine and me and threatened the autonomy of the
locals. Therefore we scrapped the idea for the time being.
In the meantime AFT did start organizing at two other County Colleges. Over
the next few years I studied adjunct locals in other states and looked into
some federated locals in other professions. I finally came up with a plan
that I thought could work and would ensure local autonomy. The plan would
make each old local a chapter of the larger, federated local after we all
gave up our charters and voted to join the federated local. Rather than turn
over our treasuries, each chapter would pay a per cap each month to the
Federated local in addition to AFT state and national per caps. That would
create a small working treasury for the new, big local to work on issues
involving all chapters. Each local put the change and the merger to a
membership vote and it eventually passed in all seven locals. The new Local
was chartered as Local 2222, United Adjunct Faculty of New Jersey, and I was
elected as Secretary-Treasurer. The Local started operating by September
2009.
Since its inception, we have added two more County College adjunct chapters
to the local and currently have a membership of just over 3100. We are on
the ground at two other county colleges and hope to have them both on board
by the end of 2011. We are the third largest local in the AFT NJ State
Federation, only behind Rutgers and Newark Teachers Union. I have served as
president of the State Federation for the past 31 months and will be
stepping down from that position by June in order to concentrate on Local
2222 and its further growth. We have members of our Local on all working
committees in the State Federation and three of our members are State
Federation Vice Presidents. We have been participating in the legislative
actions against Governor Chris Christie and work very closely with the other
27,000 AFT members in the State Federation. The creation of Local 2222 has
given us a voice and more strength in the state and has given us stronger
exposure. In fact shortly after our creation we worked with our State
Lobbyist to save pensions for then current adjuncts and to allow new
adjuncts to participate in a state 401K plan with state contributions
included.
My vision for the future of Local 2222 is very optimistic. Most of the
chapters have increased their membership this past academic year due to the
conditions of the economy and the need for more adjuncts. My goal is to make
us the second largest local in the State Federation, and, eventually, the
largest.

My route to leadership within NFM has been a long and winding road.
As the daughter of a Naval officer, I moved from place to place annually
until I was about eleven years old, from the arid plains of Turkey to the
seacoast of northern Florida and the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains
in Virginia. My undergraduate experience at Vassar Collage introduced me to
the natural beauty of upstate New York, where I now live.
I moved to rural Central New York in 1988, after I received an M.A. in
English Literature and an M.F.A. in Poetry from George Mason University in
Virginia while working full-time for Fairfax County Public Libraries. I left
my secure, well-paid civil service career to begin teaching writing and
literature part-time at both Syracuse University and SUNY Cortland. In 1994,
I taught for a semester in London for Syracuse University; from 1995 to
1998, I taught at four colleges in Southern California before returning to
New York. At times, like many ad/cons, I have struggled to make enough money
to pay my bills, running from campus to campus teaching too many classes
with no spare time to analyze the bigger employment picture that I was part
of.
During the years when I worked in North County San Diego, colleagues at Mira
Costa Community College started talking about organizing, and I eagerly
joined the committee as it got off the ground. Within a matter of months, we
were able to get an overwhelming majority of the adjuncts to vote to become
a collective bargaining unit within AFT. The administration helped our cause
by refusing to implement a health insurance benefits package that the State
had offered to fund, claiming that the paperwork would be too hard to
handle. At the same time, one of our veteran colleagues became a "poster
boy" for this issue when he had to have emergency gall bladder surgery that
bankrupted him and he lost his home. From this organizing experience, I
learned that great change is possible even when only a very small number of
people are willing to work hard in common cause. Overcoming fear is always
the first step.
In 1999, local leaders of United University Professions, the union which
represents the 35,000 or so academic and professional faculty across the 33
SUNY campuses, had agreed with Cortland's Chair of the English Department
and eventually with our administration, that in some disciplines, full-time
contingent positions were a preferable alternative to large numbers of
"part-time" teachers, and an MOU was signed creating full-time positions
with a 4/4 load, and even providing for incremental promotions.
Being appointed to one of these full-time lectureships has greatly improved
my quality of life, and not only because the salary is far more equitable:
full-time status has enabled me to concentrate my energy and professional
development at one institution, to participate in curricular innovation and
college wide committees, and to develop the rewarding and enlightening
personal relationships with colleagues and students that are essential to
us.
The college has thankfully continued to fund those lines, not only in my
department but across the college. Lest you think all my worries are over,
however, please be aware that I am on a term appointment and must reapply
periodically. I have just reapplied for my job. Given the dire budget
situation in New York, with the new governor threatening to cut $100 million
from SUNY funding, I will not rest easy until I receive a reappointment
letter this summer. Even then, my position will remain a precarious one. The
administration could easily cut costs by replacing me with two or three
people in part-time positions for a much lower per course salary.
It was not until 2004 that I ran for a position as a union delegate, and it
happened only because one of my colleagues, who had miraculously worked her
way up from a part-time position into a tenure-track position and a full
professorship, came into my shared office one afternoon and asked if she
could nominate me.
Once I learned enough to fully understand the political arena determining
the terms and conditions of ad/con employment in SUNY, I immediately stepped
up to join other activists on behalf of part- and full-time contingent
colleagues. Seeking to improve the status quo, I have served in local and
statewide union roles, most notably as a member of the current UUP
Negotiations Team. I am grateful to my union for sending me to COCAL both in
2008 and 2010, but this does not mean I have been uncritical of internal
rhetoric and behavior that demonstrate regressive attitudes about the
treatment of ad/cons.
I am a firm believer in Joe Berry's "inside/outside" strategy: what I learn
and do in each different organization enriches my perception of, and
productivity within, the others. I have played a part in local and state
<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=s689a4cab&et=1104895291634&s=497&e=0019ZDrsy3lhqygi30oII0eUmCgiSAPY53HNi_30sJfVNV4vzIgku_nSuc4f5CrU4awxp-6O0nahuVqPWqUmwAdGN-vR-LApDpqVUKHZZYmGSrtAZRHrIEtHJLtH7rxaYxp4wcZca7VFBAxlYuJF8RXm2KekfFXdxvattkNxeKZ50EH37piclRgIbLxy6x4BRcl>political
conversations that offer openings to advocate for higher education funding
and equity for contingent faculty. I am honored to serve NFM members as its
Secretary to the Board of Directors.
As more and more ad/cons join advocacy organizations like NFM, our progress
will accelerate exponentially. One step will lead to another and another.
One step at a time, we can make a difference, and one person at a time, we
can ask others to join us, as my colleague did several years ago, inviting
me to step forward. Not everyone is able to make time for such work, but
those of us who are able, must, for as long as we can. Will you take your
next step now? Let's do all we can to be the change we seek.
*Anne Wiegard*
*Me and UC*
Below is this newsletter's installment of "Me and UC," a place for you, our
members, to share your stories, if not your blues, about your process of
filing for Unemployment Compensation.
Whether or not you've been successful, the particulars of your situation in
your particular state are invaluable to NFM members and adcons across the
country who are or might soon be in similar situations, pursuing similar
processes in filings of their own. As most of us already know from serving
institutions without really being considered a part of those institutions,
one of the benefits we often have to do without for a long time is the
knowledge that we're not alone.
These stories are meant to convince you otherwise: far from having "nothing
left to lose," as Janis sang it, we have everything to gain and many ways of
gaining it.
Fighting "reasonable assurance"
One adjunct's story
This article is based on the experience of an adjunct who teaches at
two community colleges in her home state as well as online courses for a
national university.
Suzanne (not her real name) was denied unemployment insurance benefits by
three schools for the time she was out of work last summer. One of the
colleges (let's call it community college #1) had previously provided the
"letter of reasonable assurance" for future employment required by Michigan
law before a college can deny UI benefits between terms. It was immediately
apparent that to fight this adverse ruling two issues had to be addressed:
1) whether the letter actually did provide reasonable assurance of future
employment, and 2) whether the denial of benefits upheld on appeal for one
position would apply to the other colleges.
When Suzanne's appeal was scheduled she sought help from her adjunct faculty
union at community college #1. She was told that the organization could not
help her, but she might receive assistance from Joe Berry, a nationally
renowned advocate for adcon rights and co-author of the book "Access to
Unemployment Insurance Benefits for Contingent Faculty." Joe provided her
with important information, especially about the legal term "reasonable
assurance," but told Suzanne to contact NFM since the assistance of local
experts who are knowledgeable about state laws and legal proceedings is
essential in fighting denial of UI benefits.
When Suzanne contacted NFM President Maria Maisto, Maria and several NFM
Board members provided initial guidance. The NFM advisors thought it was
important to establish, if possible, any contradiction between the language
in the reasonable assurance letter and public documents released by
community college #1. In addition, Suzanne was advised to check that the
reasonable assurance letter was sent to her within time limits established
by law. They also urged her to continue to apply for UI benefits between
periods so she could receive benefits retroactively in the event that a
college didn't follow through on assigning the courses promised in the
letter of reasonable assurance.
The NFM group also examined public documents on the website of community
college #2 and the national university and concluded that these institutions
could not rationally claim that Suzanne had reasonable assurance of being
rehired after a summer break. NFM members provided additional advice,
including how to argue an appeal (in a nutshell: keep it simple, bring in no
new issues or tangential information and especially do not use the hearing
to vent your anger at the situation).
The next step was to try to get a local expert to help with her appeal. The
NFM team thought it would be useful to approach for the second time a leader
of the adjunct union at community college #1. Suzanne was able to obtain a
one-time consultation with an advocate provided by the Michigan Unemployment
Agency, but had to argue the appeal by herself since advocates are not
allowed at school denial hearings.
It was difficult for Suzanne to convey her message at the hearing because
the judge asked for yes and no answers without allowing for additional
statements, explanations, or questions. At times Suzanne tried to more fully
explain her yes/no answers, but this information was not well received.
Nevertheless, the representative of community college #1 was forced to admit
that a class could be cancelled if only two students registered even if a
letter of reasonable assurance had been sent on time. However, the judge did
not appear to connect the possibility of canceling a class with the lack of
reasonable assurance of future employment.
The judge denied UI benefits for all schools based on community college #1's
reasonable assurance letter. Suzanne would like to proceed further with the
hearings to promote better working conditions for contingent faculty, though
she now has to weigh the personal cost. NFM would like to take up her
battle.
A Word from NFM's Treasurer
By Bill Lipkin
Dear NFM member,
Early in 2009, a group of activists began to form the first nationally
incorporated nonprofit organization dedicated exclusively to advocating for
adjunct and contingent equity. In the two years since then, NFM has launched
a series of ambitious projects:
- NFM developed a national Unemployment Compensation Initiative via an
interactive website to provide information on applying for unemployment
benefits and also for collecting experiences from those trying to do so in
all fifty states. Our aim is to make it as easy for adcons to receive
benefits as workers routinely do in any other field.
- NFM has advocated for equity in print and in person. Members of our
board of directors have completed or have forthcoming book chapters and
articles for national publications, e.g., *The Chronicle of Higher
Education, Inside Higher Ed *and* Liberal Education*. But our goal is to
get our message into the mainstream media, as we did when we got a letter
published in the *Wall Street Journal *and when our most recent op-ed
appeared earlier this month in the Cleveland *Plain Dealer*.
- NFM activists have advocated for equity as panelists and workshop
participants at major national conferences in New York, Los Angeles and
Quebec.
- NFM joined other faculty organizations last year in speaking out on
behalf of faculty who lost their jobs while trying to organize an
adjunct union at Chicago's East-West University. NFM has also supported
individual faculty members around the country when they were victims of
flagrant abuse by their employers or their unions.
- NFM's Vice President, Matt Williams, succeeded in ending the misguided
policy at the University of Akron, whereby a requirement to to submit DNA
samples as a condition of employment would be illegal. Unfortunately, the
price for this success cost him his job.
- Later this spring, NFM will be offering health insurance to members
around the country, one of only a few programs of its kind.
- Early next year, NFM will host a national summit of all stakeholders to
address the growing staffing crisis in higher education. Tentatively titled
"Confronting Contingency," the summit is scheduled for January 28 in
Washington, DC. For the first time, it will bring together both contingent
and tenured faculty members, along with representatives of students, college
administrators, accrediting organizations and others, to discuss ways to end
contingency, thereby improving the lives of most college faculty and the
quality of education.
We have thus far been able to do this on a veritable shoestring budget and
without any paid staff, but that can't continue if we are to grow. We have
been reluctant to require dues, though we may move to that model if
necessary. All of our projects cost money, and we're now running on empty.
In order to be a strong and effective voice for the million contingent
faculty members around the country, we can no longer just rely on a handful
of volunteers. If you like what we've done so far and approve of the
direction we're going, YOU can help us get there more quickly!
This year we passed the 1,000 mark in our membership numbers. However, we
have been hovering at barely the $1,000 mark in our operating funds. If
every member were to give $10 or more, we would be able to do such things as
- expand our outreach to the general public, especially the student and
parent groups that need to be educated and mobilized;
- support travel by activists to lobby legislators and other leaders who
can help us to effect change;
- help local groups to form chapters and begin advocating for change in
their local communities;
- support worthy projects like Debra Leigh Scott's and Chris LaBree's
film *'Junct: The Trashing of Higher Ed in America" *and Megan Fulwiler's
and Jennifer Marlow's* documentary "Con Job: Stories of Adjunct and
Contingent Faculty"*
- strengthen our Unemployment Compensation Initiative; and
- provide legal assistance to faculty who experience retaliation for
their advocacy.
I urge you to act today to help keep NFM's projects going and to help us
develop new ones that will help to end the exploitation. Please send the
minimum suggested contribution of $15 -- or whatever you can spare -- today

A Documentary in the Making

who is working on a film called "'Junct: The Trashing of Higher Ed in
America," writing instructors Megan Fulwiler and Jennifer Marlow are working
on a documentary highlighting contingency, particularly within the fields of
English and Composition.
Called "Con Job: Stories of Adjunct and Contingent Faculty," it focuses on
the more than 80 percent of first-year writing now taught by adjunct and
contingent instructors. The documentary provides a means of listening to
the voices too often silenced or dismissed in educational policies and
practices. Featuring interviews with ad-con writing teachers from around the
nation, administrators in higher education, and labor leaders in the field,
the film attempts to describe, expose, and interrogate the issue of
contingent labor from a range of perspectives. At the 2010 COCAL conference
in Quebec City, Fulwiler and Marlow interviewed Matt Williams, Anne Wiegard,
Steve Street, and Ross Borden (all of NFM). More interviews are scheduled
for the upcoming Conference on College Composition and Communication in
Atlanta in April, 2011, where the filmmakers will also show a trailer of the
film. (If any NFM readers are composition teachers who will be at the CCCCs
in Atlanta, the viewing is FSIG.21 April 8, 6:30-7:30 in International
Ballroom A.)
In addition to interviews, the team is also working with the online data
collected by the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE) supported
Contingent Faculty Questionnaire. The goal is to produce a film that traces
the history and manifestations of--as well as potential solutions to-issues
of contingency in higher education.

Teach-on: Teach-in
By Vanessa Vaile
March 2011 was a month of action, in part planned by Defend Public
Education<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?llr=s689a4cab&et=1104895291634&s=497&e=0019ZDrsy3lhqwX3AKmI3zVlP2tDBM5mYuNT_ER3NIoI4uREAvDFKcz4cyN-7LEJ9-sZA7pqlgccAwOP210Sa_tgqrapFE3-WapeegCgWpaCjeBZtRewhe3ew==>and
other groups as a coordinated series of actions supporting public
education continuing and expanding on those of October 7, 2010 and March 4,
2010. This round, Wisconsin upped the ante. March actions, spreading into
April and beyond, moved from previously planned to reactions supporting a
broader cause. The massive attack on collective bargaining, public services
workers, and public services was not limited to public education. Proposed
legislation called for cutting public services drastically and, as part of
budgetary package, dismantling or severely restricting collective
bargaining.
In March we watched the actions on TV, followed it live online, web streamed
and tweeted, and participated when and where possible. Protest manifested in
petitions, rallies, marches, demonstrations, and teach-ins, with one
California campus holding a "ramen-in."
Although teach-ins are not the exclusive province of adjuncts, GTAs and
other faculty, educators are naturally drawn to forms that teach. More
teach-ins than usual have occurred and are being planned. They won't get the
TV coverage of other, more colorful protest forms. Unless juiced 60s style,
a picture with an accompanying article in the local student paper is the
most any teach-in can expect. Recent teach-ins usually address budget cuts
affecting higher education, faculty pay and employment, and adjunct issues.
An incomplete March Teach-In list, primarily but not exclusively focused on
budget cut and higher ed funding, includes: Wisconsin; Ohio; New York (New
Paltz); Massachusetts (Boston); California (multiple locations); Missouri
(Kansas City); and Indiana (IUPUI).
So what do we know about Teach-ins other than that their purpose is to
educate students (if class time) or public about issues?Who is not familiar,
if only by passing reference, with the Berkeley and Michigan 60s anti-war
teach-ins 60s. What are some other examples? Who puts them on? Do we put on,
hold, or host a teach in? Can we throw one? Are teach-ins just for
educators? Where can they be held? What other issues do they address? Where
did they come from? What if my adjunct group wants to hold one to educate
colleagues, students, the public about adjunct issues? How do we do it? Are
there guidelines or instructions for putting on a teach-in?
Teach-ins, somewhat comparable to a general educational forum on any
complicated issue, usually address and explain more about a current issue.
On the surface, this sounds like a seminar session, conference panel or
workshop except teach-ins are more flexible and do not necessarily restrict
discussion to a set time limits (unless held as part of a class) or defined
topics. The intent is to be practical, participatory, and ultimately, action
oriented. Although teach-ins often include guest experts, audience
participation in the form of discussion, questions, proposals, even going
off topic is welcome and even hoped for. Moderators and experts are sources
of information and catalysts, not the main attraction. You might even call
teach-ins early instances of "student centered" classes.
Looking up "Teach ins" to refresh my memory and pinpoint their origin
confirmed personal memories of their mid-60s emergence and popularity as a
campus war protest form. The first major teach-in, May 1965 at the
University of Michigan Ann Arbor campus, drew 3,500 students, began with a
discussion of the Vietnam war draft, and ended with the logistics of a
takeover of the University. The largest, also anti-war and in May 1965, was
held at UC Berkeley on a large outdoor playing field and lasted 36 hours.
>From 10-30,000 people turned out, depending on who was counting - let's
split the difference at 20,000. The State Department, declining an
invitation to send someone, was represented on stage by an empty chair,
presumably not counted. This is an interesting but potentially unnerving and
a cautionary tale for any administrator asked to permit a teach-in on
campus. It is also not a complete picture.
Since then, teach-ins have been held on various topics, often moving indoors
and in classrooms during regularly scheduled class sessions. Too many groups
to list here use teach-ins as education and organizing tools. Some are
organized by the same institutions they have been used against. Teach-ins
are an integral part of the Amnesty International organizers' tool-kit. Both
large and small scale ones are popular with environmental educators.
Supplementing community teach-ins on the environment, a 2007 webcast, "2010
Imperative: A Global Emergency Teach-in," reached a quarter million people
from 47 different countries. A Jesuit group, The Ignatian Solidarity Net,
has been operating an ongoing teach-in project since 1989.
Closer to home, teach-ins have been an integral part of Campus Equity Week
since its inception. Indirectly, they are part of our own organizational
history. On New Faculty Majority Day 2009, organized by Bob Samuels,
non-tenure track University of California faculty taught classes outside,
held rallies, and wore red in observance of the first-ever New Faculty
Majority Day, two years ago this coming April. In support of the occasion,
Steve Street started the blog that we inherited.
Locating a more complete history of the teach-in and its precise point of
emergence proves yet elusive. My best guess: the teach-in was a natural
evolutionary by-product and branch of the 50s sit-in adapted by students
active in the Civil Rights Movement. Those roots extend deeper, sharing
kinship with the imperative of civil disobedience and non-violent
resistance: "occupy space" but peacefully. Thoreau, Shelley, Sophocles, and
Exodus (1: 15-19) are claimed as antecedents. Emphasizing the student
protest and civil disobedience heritage might not be the best way to get
permission to throw one on your own campus.
Want to host a teach-in but not sure how? You're in luck: we offer two
excellent resources to help you get started:
