DESCRIPTION:The Exploitation of Part-Time College Faculty – Panel Discussion\n\nPart 
 of the so-called American Dream is the notion that if you work hard and get 
 a good education you will make a decent living. However, many of our most 
 educated workers are teachers in higher education institutions and suffer 
 from the worldwide trend, endured by an increasing number of workers, of 
 being grossly underpaid and overworked with few rights and benefits while 
 simultaneously enduring great job insecurity. College teachers facing these 
 conditions are known as adjuncts, part-timers, freeway flyers, or road 
 scholars. When there are unions where they work, they are often poorly 
 represented. Their needs are inadequately addressed, compared to their more 
 privileged tenured, full-time colleagues, by union “leaders” who claim 
 to favor social justice and equality. The panel will draw on their 
 experiences and describe the difficulties these instructors face. They will 
 discuss why these unjust conditions exist and what can be done to end them. 
 We will encourage audience participation. \n\nInitial speakers:\n Carol 
 Lang, Adjunct History professor at City University of New York, John 
 Holmes, teaches History at Merritt and Diablo Valley Colleges, Margaret 
 Hanzimanolis, teaches writing at De Anza College, Rick Baum, teaches 
 Political Science at City College of San Francisco. Sponsored by Defend 
 Public Education Now!\nSee
