Description

With roughly 25% of those teaching college classes belonging to a union, higher education is one of the most heavily organized industries in the United States.

Substantial research-based literature exists as scholars have been studying the topic for a half of a century.

Following an overview of its history and context, this monograph synthesizes and analyzes the existing research on faculty and graduate student unionization.

It points to evolving understandings of faculty attitudes regarding collective bargaining and the findings on the relationships between unionization and compensation, satisfaction, procedural protections, organizational effectiveness, and related issues for tenure-line faculty.

Additional chapters consider the more limited research on non-tenure-line faculty and graduate student instructors.

As such, this monograph illuminates the accepted understandings, contested arguments, and the substantial gaps in understandings that remain. This is the third issue of the 43rd volume of the Jossey-Bass series ASHE Higher Education Report.

Each monograph is the definitive analysis of a tough higher education issue, based on thorough research of pertinent literature and institutional experiences.

Topics are identified by a national survey. Noted practitioners and scholars are then commissioned to write the reports, with experts providing critical reviews of each manuscript before publication.
