The December Academe newsletter features an early-release article from our forthcoming special issue on “the higher ed data juggernaut,” edited by Siobhan Senier of the University of New Hampshire, along with other new articles, book reviews, a profile of the George Mason University AAUP chapter, links to recent posts from the Academe Blog, and an article from the Academe archives.
