In recent years, the academy has undergone significant changes: a more competitive and volatile job market has led to widespread precarity, teaching and service loads have become more burdensome, and higher education is becoming increasingly corporatized. This passionate and compassionate volume provides practical advice for academics at every career stage, whether they are first entering the job market or negotiating the post-tenure challenges of leadership and administrative roles. Contributors affirm what is exciting and fulfilling about academic work while advising readers about how to set and protect boundaries around their energy and labor.

Join co-editors Lori A. Flores (Stony Brook University) and Jocelyn H. Olcott (Duke University), along with 3 guest essayists from the volume, for a conversation about academia today.
