From the 2010 archives: Glass ceiling & tiered employment: not just for #adjuncts

…blogged five years ago on this day in 2010. Change where are thou? I just added 'irony' to the tags. Ruccio still rules...

Glass ceiling & tiered employment: not just for adjuncts

via David Ruccio's occasional links & commentary

On #tenure…from the archives, 2010

Serendipity rules! I'd been looking for this back post from the archives, as much for the carrot image as the content and blogger David F Ruccio's comments on an NY Times Debate about tenure (link below). Today, when I was no longer looking for the post, it popped up among the " You might also like" selections at the end of a post. 

Then I noticed that I hadn't carried Ruccio (also blogging at Real World Economics Review) over to the new blogroll, rebuilt after the contents unraveled during migration to this domain. It's there now.  

The About page describes occasional link & commentary (on economics, culture and society) as consisting of  "occasional links and bits of commentary—some humorous, others more serious, often a combination." Let me add that it is fabulously illustrated with charts, graphs (hey, he is an economist), cartoons, public art, lithographs. prints and paintings. Now follows the post as it appeared July 20, 2010:

“It’s stupid economists, people”

It’s mainstream economists, not economists in general. And they’re not really stupid, just dogmatic in their insistence on a particular theory of economics. But Ross Gittins [ht: tm] does put his figure on a real problem.

Why mess around with a good thing by adding more of my own superfluous copy? Read the rest of “It’s stupid economists, people” at occasional links & commentary, David F. Ruccio
