Marc Bousquet, author of the new and highly recommended NYU Press book How the University Works, and the man behind the essential blog howtheuniversityworks.com, has some great YouTube interviews on labor practices in the contemporary American university. Check out my colleague Michelle Massé's line at the end of her interview "Higher Ed: A Pyramid Scheme" on the coming K-12-ization of the university. Wouldn't you rather be a "loving teacher" than merely a "professor"? Massé (English and Women's & Gender Studies at LSU), is co-editor with Katie Hogan (English and WGS at Carlow University) of the forthcoming collection, Over Ten Million Served:
Gendered Service in Language and Literature Workplaces from SUNY
Press.
