Dr. Margaret
Hanzimanolis has been appointed the Chair of the Executive Committee for
Part-time Faculty Discussion group, in the Modern Language Association, an
association of almost 30,000 language and literature professors from the U.S.
and Canada.
The MLA is the largest disciplinary organization in the
world, and it is in the midst of a major pivot toward community college
professors and adjunct faculty. Margaret serves with Maria Maisto,
the President of the New Faculty Majority, an advocacy group for adjunct
faculty. A motion calling for the Integrated Post-secondary Data System (IPEDS)
to require institutions to report pay for Part-time faculty came out of
the committee's work in January of this year.
Dr. Margaret Hanzimanolis participated in the Campaign for the Future of Higher Education, in Sacramento, during Jan 20-22 this year.
The "think tank" discussed three new proposals for financing higher education, including Bob Samuels' "Free Higher Education" proposal, which consists of a plan for reallocating and rearranging existing funding streams.
