We have a democratic governor in Texas:
Gina Hinojosa, who staked her campaign on public education.
The governor appoints university regents, who have been destroying our universities.
This win meaningfully changes things for Texas universities, students, us early career faculty here.

No. It is the faculty who do the teaching and research that defines the institution. They are the professional. They must be in charge. Not your local bank ceo. Democratic governors must appoint faculty to university boards.

BTW if you think there aren’t enough faculty at your institution to do the intense work of governance while also doing research, teaching, and service then that’s a sign that your institution needs to fucking hire more faculty.

When I was a graduate student, I would spend two weeks on a 15-minute conference talk. As a faculty member, I spend 2 hours on a 75-minute lecture. When I was a student, I used to think that this was because faculty members didn't care; now I know that it is because faculty members are BUSY.

A properly run university has faculty setting policy, staff and admin helping implement that policy, and a president raising money to support those policies without questioning them.
The most honest response is that well-paid and treated staffers do, so a properly run university has the president setting policy not running operations.

Even at research-focused places (R1 and R1-aspiring) there are faculty who embed those traits in their practice, but they are often contingent or junior t/t faculty who feel unsupported, even looked down upon, for doing so. This also applies to most staff. And that absolutely has to change.

I do a lot of talks and workshops centering things like fostering student belonging, and embedding humane-ness and humanity into teaching and faculty life. There is a clear difference, depending on institutional type, in how (and whether) faculty believe they have the support to do those things.
