The Contingent Professor | Tenure? They still do that? Join Contingent Nation as we take you into the bizarre reality of surviving and thriving in 21st century academia, where tenure and tenure-track positions are being "re-evaluated." Designed for new and mid-career faculty - heck, all faculty - looking to break free of the Adjunct title or navigate the tenure/promotion/re-appointment process, which includes research, teaching, advising, service, working with colleagues, and dealing with administrators that have their own agendas. Contingent Prof Daniel and his Department Chair Rob provide news, commentary, and interviews with academics trying to live the Professor Life. (Yes, even highly educated people make poor choices.)
