The number of full-time non-tenure-track faculty members at US institutions grew by about 13% from 2007 to 2011, compared with 11% for part-time faculty members, a report finds. Here's the News: The Annual Report on the Economic Status of the Profession, 2012–13, published on 8 April by the American Association of University Professors (AAUP) in Washington DC, also notes that more than one-fifth of assistant professors were off the tenure track in 2010–11. “Even among ranks that we would think of as tenure track, a significant proportion of faculty are not,” says John Curtis, AAUP director of research and public policy.
