  • Meeting #8 10/13/20 Full

    46:00 “was it the institution, who boo’d the idea of going into education. CC, state, UC, private schools. Donohue act in 1960s the law that implement california master plan, the mechanism by which california puts into code, higher ed are stratified. my CC my tenure requirements i do 100% teaching i don’t have to be publishing when my colleagues come into my classrooms they are looking for effective teachers. there is a very real focus on teaching, it could be a detractor - the next step up is primarily undergraduate institutions PUI aka CSU grant bachelors and masters degree 80% teaching 20% research. in greater bay area it’s more like 50% 50% - think about 1 blog post, now generate theory no body has seen before going to conferences getting grants

    classic stories will write random people in the field - anonymous who have likely read your papers - out of your control as somebody going into that position you have to be writing people a lot this model this is based on the income of the university in order to stay in that job you need to get the feedback from people getting to know you Uc’s research is 80% 20% private institutions really skew this private institution have huge endowments. SJ mercury the largest land owner of bay area the amount of land they have just by themselves the river of VC and small money is stupid - stanford will poach the best academics in the world and then they will guarntee those people who don’t teach these classes -if you are at UCB - then you have

    53:00 ACADEMIC ARMS RACE  0 teaching load in order to get the best talent systemic structures that make it in the financial interest of your faculty to incentivize educational experiences, and center or focus on the research bend bc there’s so much money involved in that - private industries - when students get out of their education and ready for that professional thinking a whole pathway and it’s really really difficult to get tenure in these institutions there are people who get tenure at 42y.o and it’s young. now you risen to the pinnacle of this thing it’s not my freaking problem - high ed was not founded for social justice move this was founded for rich white land owners in 1700s you can not get into a sematary school unless you white and a man. 1930s land grant build education then 1940 GI bill lets subsidize training for these folks so they can go back into 1950-1970 we as a society started to accept structures of Higher education who were never able to attend previously, while that’s happening there are social inequalities that sit behind that, who are the gate keepers in our ed system that really control that system run - policy makers govern the amount the founding - personnel is policy the actual decisions a fauclty member as a daily basis a lot of the chlalneges there’s a misalignment. a conscious dissonance between advertisement - why should you go to UCB vs Foothill College. get paid more

    59:00 they are invested in your education, incentives I do not blame, human empathy - they are doing what’s right for them - i couldn’t make that decision for myself i can see being conscious of that injustice unhealthy for me and the type of life i wanted to create my family turn my mind off i would have to propagate it i would have to do in my own classes what i so detested i saw I enroll in the system get chewed up i refuse to play that game, not for the 1 %. it’s doing exactly what it’s designed to do, empowering subset of people.

    1:01:00 it would be a lot more honest if we said, UCB, we can’t design the system KQED forum karl weinman nobel laureate in physics https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101860027/nobel-laureate-carl-wieman-wants-to-to-end-the-college-lecture

  • Jos Slovick - I Am a Poor Wayfaring Stranger (from 1917)

    In university, we are conditioned to let go of many things we hold so close & dear to our heart. We often learn languages and subjects our family and friends know very little about. We have to spend hours on end learning these subjects, all while learning how to learn in ways we were never required to before. Remember your values and who you are. You make the school, the school does not make you.

    Official Music Video: https://youtu.be/fp7mdSMNQB0

    Lyrics:
    I am a poor wayfaring stranger I'm traveling through this world of woe Yet there's no sickness, toil nor danger In that bright land to which I go  I'm going there to see my father I'm going there, no more to roam I'm only going over Jordan I'm only going over home  I know dark clouds will gather round me I know my way is rough and steep But golden fields lie just before me Where God's redeemed shall ever sleep  I'm going home to see my mother And all my loved ones who've gone on I'm only going over Jordan I'm only going over home  Repeat verse one and chorus
    Song
