Teachers' Working Conditions are Students' Learning Conditions
What is "Campus Equity Week"
("Fair Employment Week" in Canada)?
Campus Equity Week is coalition among faculty organizers and organizations throughout higher education. We are joined by a common focus on the increasing and exploitative contingent employment practices in our colleges and universities, and the problems deriving there from. Whether an individual or organization's specific attention is on academic quality, student access and success, public policy, fiscal support, working conditions, benefits, or pay equity issues, we generally agree that what has been termed "the corporatization of higher education" has led to a continuous decline throughout the last half of the twentieth century, and this following on a half century of unprecedented growth in all measures of quality.
The Mission of Campus Equity Week
Our goal is to raise awareness and educate our campus communities, the public and policymakers about the broad negative impacts of contingent academic employment practices.
