"What this book illustrates is that we need not-and should not-look to others to make it right, to make a difference. The chapters that follow evidence the many ways in which rank-and-file faculty have drawn on their expertise, their colleagues as partners, their concern for the institution, and their values rooted in equity to make a difference."From the Foreword by Nancy L. Chick, Director, Endeavor Center for Faculty Development, Rollins College
"Academic Labor beyond the College Classroom calls for fundamental change in higher education. While some of the chapters describe instances of institutional reorganization, it's pretty clear that physical change of that sort is no more than moving around the deck chairs, as higher education-and our values as members of the academic community-hurtle toward the iceberg. The essential moves called for in this book are deep changes in teaching, learning, and in the very definition of academic work, necessitated by new ways of knowing."
From the Afterword by Elaine P. Maimon, Ph.D., President, Governors State University
"This book might be most inspirational as a guide to slow but useful tactics for increasing equity in academia. Social change makers and coalition builders within the university might find help here in thinking about ways to make change within their spheres. The authors also address groups that are historically left out, including un>documented students and workers, women, and transgender students."
-Nicole Braun, RGWS: A Feminist Review
