Contingent Faculty Committee

Committee on Contingent and Community College Faculty and Independent Scholars (CCCFIS)

This joint committee focuses on strengthening the collective voices of practitioners of labor history whose scholarship is not often provided material or collegial support by universities and colleges. The committee’s activities are especially focused on ways to more fully integrate the research and teaching contributions of contingent and community college faculty and independent scholars into LAWCHA and the history profession. It also encourages organizational support for advocacy campaigns to improve the working conditions for contingent and community college faculty and affordable institutional access for independent scholars.
