A Guide To Academic Freedom, Frederick P. Schaffer

Journal of Collective Bargaining in the Academy

This brief introduction to the principles of academic freedom is intended for attorneys and other administrators who represent or work at colleges and universities. It has two purposes. The first is to introduce them to academic freedom as a set of professional principles regardless of whether or not they are legally enforceable. Attorneys and administrators need to understand the culture of the institutions they represent or serve. Nowhere is this more true than with colleges and universities, which have well established traditions and norms that influence the expectations and conduct of all those responsible for their governance, including faculty, administrators …

Employer Perspectives On ‘Zero Hours’ Contracts In Uk Higher Education, Laurence Hopkins, Helen Fairfoul Sep 2014

Employer Perspectives On ‘Zero Hours’ Contracts In Uk Higher Education, Laurence Hopkins, Helen Fairfoul

Journal of Collective Bargaining in the Academy

The use of casual and temporary labour in the UK labour market is not a new phenomenon, but an increase in the use of so-called ‘zero hours contracts’ has drawn considerable attention from pressure groups, the media and all three main political parties over the past 18 months. While official figures indicate that the majority of zero hours contracts are found in the retail, hospitality, and healthcare sectors, the use of these arrangements at higher education establishments has also attracted attention and has become an area of focus for HE trade unions.

Trends In Labor Management Issues At Historically Black Colleges And Universities, Derryn Moten Sep 2014

Trends In Labor Management Issues At Historically Black Colleges And Universities, Derryn Moten

Journal of Collective Bargaining in the Academy

The uniqueness of Historically Black Colleges and Universities make achieving collective bargaining on these campuses problematic. All but a handful of black colleges are located in the south, a region with a well-established aversion to organized labor. The South’s history of plantation slavery coupled with feudal peonage labor and Big Mule politics is antithetical with notions of fair wages, reasonable benefits and work hours, and safe working environments. Something similar can be argued about shared governance on the campuses of HBCUs where labor trends favoring union representation of staff trails the success achieved on many Historically White Colleges and Universities …

Trends In Labor Management Issues At Historically Black Colleges And Universities, Elizabeth K. Davenport

Journal of Collective Bargaining in the Academy

The mobilization of workers through unionization has deep historical roots within American society; more so in the northern regions thanin the southern region of this country.Despite these historical roots,some sectors of the American population (i.e., minorities in general and AfricanAmericans in particular) who have experienced various forms of discrimination have not fully participatedin the unionization movement. This is especially true of the faculty in historically

Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). As a result of thevarious forms of discriminationthat not only denied them meaningful participation in the labor market but restricted their economic success, and the segregation that resulted from the …

Investment Horizons And Information, Kershen Huang, Alex Petkevich Sep 2014

Investment Horizons And Information, Kershen Huang, Alex Petkevich

HCBE Faculty Presentations

We examine the relation between institutions' investment horizons on firms' financing and investment decisions. Firms with larger short-term institutional ownership use less debt financing and invest more in corporate liquidity. In contrast, firms with larger long-term institutional ownership use more internal funds, less external equity financing, and preserve investments in long-term assets. These results are driven significantly by information, in addition to the long-term demand shock of institutional ownership. We argue that short-term (long-term) institutions collect and use value-neutral (value-enhancing) information.

Goodell's Quagmire, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The continuing saga of the NFL and Ray Rice has now become basically the Roger Goodell story. The Commissioner has not managed to stay ahead of the news cycle and has failed to cut his losses. Rather than to accept responsibility for his mistakes and missteps he has continued to deal in what now seems to be his only task as Commissioner, to Protect the Shield. And it’s not going well.
