Fiduciary Tool Kit For Compliance: Common Errors In Qualified And Nonqualified Retirement Plan Administration, Susan E. Bernstein, Mark E. Brossman, Hugh A. Mallon Iii
Journal of Collective Bargaining in the Academy
The Investment Company Institute reported that
U.S. retirement plan assets reached $21.7 trillion
as of Sept. 30, 2013, which represents 34 percent of
all household financial assets in the U.S.1 The Department
of Labor reported in June 2013 that 88.7 million
Americans have defined contribution plan accounts,

high degree of scrutiny for their actions and

The Value Of Teaching Preparation During Doctoral Studies: An Example Of A Teaching Practicum, Jeffrey D. Edwards
Academic Leadership Journal in Student Research
For doctoral students who seek faculty appointments in academic settings upon graduation, it is imperative those students have access to quality mentoring, direct instruction, and experiential opportunities to apply effective teaching methods during their training. Currently, some doctoral programs are beginning to develop teaching practicums which provide essential skills and experiences for doctoral students. The purpose of this paper is to describe best practices in the field of education and provide examples of post-graduate programs that are providing training and teaching opportunities to graduate assistants. One existing teaching practicum course offered at a public university in the southeast is described …

Digital Content Delivery In Higher Education: Expanded Mechanisms For Subordinating The Professoriate And Academic Precariat, Wilhelm Peekhaus
Digital Content Delivery In Higher Education: Expanded Mechanisms For Subordinating The Professoriate And Academic Precariat, Wilhelm Peekhaus
Wilhelm Peekhaus
This paper suggests that the latest digital mechanisms for delivering higher education course content are yet another step in subordinating academic labor. The two main digital delivery mechanisms discussed in the paper are MOOCs and flexible option degrees. The paper advances the argument that, despite a relatively privileged position vis-à-vis other workers, academic cognitive laborers are caught up within and subject to some of the constraining and exploitative practices of capitalist accumulation processes. This capture within capitalist circuits of accumulation threatens to increase in velocity and scale through digital delivery mechanisms such as MOOCs and flexible option programs/degrees.

We write collaboratively, as a recent graduate and long-time faculty member of a small women’s liberal arts college, about the mental health costs of adhering to a feminist narrative of achievement that insists upon independence and resiliency. As we explore the destabilizing potential of an alternative feminist project, one that invites different temporalities in which dis/ability emerges and may be addressed, we work with disability less as an identity than as a generative methodology, a form of relation and exchange. Mapping our own college as a specific, local site for the disabling tradition of “challenging women,” we move to larger …
