Association of University Professors Challenges the Belief That Professors are Underworked.

Magner, Denise K.

Chronicle of Higher Education, v40 n21 pA18 Jan 26 1994

An American Association of University Professors report on faculty workload uses federal data to refute perceptions that faculty spend too little of their professional time on teaching. Faculty are faulted for biased public opinion. Recent Ohio legislation mandating larger undergraduate teaching loads is also criticized by professors for its inflexibility. (MSE)
