Myths and Realities: The Fallacy of Faculty Shortages in the Next Decade.
von Zur-Muehlen, Max
Canadian Journal of Higher Education, v17 n1 p13-25 1987
The popular conviction that Canadian universities will experience a serious faculty shortage in the 1990s is examined through statistics on faculty aging and replacement demand, retirement conditions, faculty renewal incentives, and the supply of doctoral recipients. It is concluded that there will be a surplus well into the 1990s. (MSE)
