(Teaching track faculty are typically non-tenure-track faculty with heavier teaching loads and less research expectations. It's mostly a form of permanent academic serfdom, but in my experience, teaching-track faculty tend to value education and students the most). 38/41
Step 3: Using the first two steps as conditions, *cap*tuition.* And I mean *all*in* tuition - fees, everything. Index the cap to the average of inflation and teacher pay (counted as an average per-credit-hour so it reflects adjunct pay, not just TT pay). 39/41
That way, if universities want to raise tuition, they need to be reinvesting that money into smaller classes, more instructors and more instructional resources. And honestly, legislatures should demand the superior teaching that comes from TT-faculty...40/41
...who have the time to truly perfect the craft of teaching. That way the next time we have to go online for a pandemic (it will happen again!) students will know they are still getting the thing they paid for: an education. end/41
Addendum on 'the business model' of education - this article at Inside Higher Ed. from 2009 does a good job of explaining it. Back then, it was the up-and-coming model. It is now standard at almost all major state schools, even though it doesn't work.https://www.insidehighered.com/views/2009/02/16/business-model-wrong-model …
Addendum 2: Some folks are pointing out that adjunctification here is a little lopsided and incomplete. And they're right! There just wasn't space in an already overlong thread. Being an adjunct myself, you can bet I have thoughts! But that will have to wait for another thread.
FYI - I've continued this thread here: https://twitter.com/BretDevereaux/status/1297679530744852481 … talking about university staff vs. administration, what we mean when we say 'bloat' and what we might do about it.
so, pull a Mitch Daniels at Purdue, or something similar.
Tuition and fees are separate beasts. Tuition isn't usually the problem.
I made it to 39. You left out the part about guaranteed student loans. Loans in any amount, that CANNOT default. Even in bankruptcy. Like the housing finance "big short", but with conscription. They are being packaged and sold as credit default swaps. Capitalism did this.
This has been the great lie of the past decade: I had a university president tout in the press how the school kept tuition from rising. Over four years, my fees at that school (not covered by the full tuition scholarship) went up 170%.
State and fed should be viewing higher ed as long term investment in civic stability and economic competitiveness. Never understood this basic failure of logic. (Actually, I do. Reflects real priorities.)
