LEO's national affiliate, the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), has released a new report that details a "significant expansion" in the use of contingent faculty in higher education over the past decade. Among the findings, the report notes that "the proportion of full-time tenured and tenure-track faculty members at public comprehensive universities dropped by nearly 13 percent during that ten-year period."
