Abstract | In this article, the author claims that the steady corporatization of American higher education has threatened to relegate faculty governance, never strong, to the historical archive. In public institutions, faculty disempowerment has been codified by law--legislatures, the governor or county executive or their staff, or state boards of higher education reserve all rights, except those that have been attained by academic unions. The relative powerlessness of most faculty senates and the independence of unions suggest that the time may be propitious to raise the possibility that, if unions choose to become involved in governance issues, there is a chance to reverse the long-term trend toward faculty disempowerment.
