Rhetoric, history, and the problems of the humanities -- Competing in Academia -- The erosion of tenure -- Professors of the future -- Prestige and prestige envy.
Taking a clear-eyed look at American higher education over the last twenty years, Donoghue outlines a web of forces--social, political, and institutional--dismantling the professoriate. Today, fewer than 30 percent of college and university teachers are tenured or on tenure tracks, and signs point to a future where professors will disappear. --from publisher description.
