AFL Says Teachers May Use Strikes
By WILLIAM J. EATON United Press International
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — College professors often face the same kind of job problems as factory workers and may turn to collective bargaining to solve them, says an AFL-CIO publication.
It said they are confronted by speedups, stretch-outs and unfair salary scales under their present system of individual negotiations.
AN ARTICLE in the Quarterly Digest of the AFL-CIO Industrial Union Department, written by David Hamilton, associate professor of economics at the University of New Mexico, said the chances of campus unionization may increase as the "war babies" born after World War II start to enter college and enrollments zoom.
College instructors have been "relatively untouched" by union organization so far despite the existence of contract and job practices which began to disappear from the industrial world two decades ago, Hamilton said.
"Today the actual job conditions of the academic worker are not dissimilar to those faced by the industrial worker within the large corporation . . . the gulf between the university president and the average faculty member yawns almost as large as that between the
(corporation president and the average wage earner," Hamilton said.
HE SAID COLLEGE professors have little, if any, control over their workload, work hours, working conditions or introduction of new techniques which may affect their employment. Pressure on faculty members to produce original research grows greater every year because of the renown that comes to a university with eminent scholars, he said.
He compared this to a speedup of a factory assembly line.
The teaching load, which varies from six to 18 hours a week, is set by administrators without effective faculty checks, Hamilton wrote.
Salaries are settled by individual negotiation and result in a "crazy quilt pattern" that does not reflect the equal pay for equal work principle. Newcomers are often paid considerably more than veterans who are equally skilled but cannot apply "bluff and bluster" to get more money, Hamilton said.
THE ADVENT of classroom television and teaching machines has even produced an academic version of automation without any professional check on its use, he said.
As for fringe benefits, Hamilton argued that faculty members are concerned over sabbatical leave. retirement plans and medical care programs.
"With the increasing size of universities and colleges the necessity for collective bargaining—if the college teacher is to achieve his job aims—becomes increasingly apparent," he said.
