Academic Careers in a Time of Recession.

Small, James M.

Canadian Journal of Higher Education, v9 n3 p63-67 1979

Assumptions about academic staffing in Canadian universities are examined in light of the combined effects of the expansionist 1960s and the depressed 1970s. Six critical issues that require attention in the higher education community are presented for examination, including mid-career alternatives and the need for objective data. (JMF)
