Non-regular : precarious academic labour at Emily Carr University of Art + Design / by Terra Poirier, editor & designer.
"Non-Regular is a collection of stories, analysis, interviews and visual art concerned with the state of contract (sessional) teaching at Emily Carr University. Edited, designed and co-authored by a student, it consists of contributions by 28 instructors and artists speaking frankly (and largely anonymously) about the conditions of their labour. Topics include: teaching as low-wage work; job security; respect and the value of art(ists); maintaining professional practices; the politics of space at the new ECU campus; impacts on students; the role of tenured faculty; and the erosion of academic freedom and integrity. We also consider how these conditions are exacerbated by and amplify gender and racial bias within academia." -- T. Poirier
