Last week, Chancellor Wiley signed into effect the university�s new policy on Limited Term Employment. This issue has mainly been promoted on campus as a social justice imperative, and while it is tempting to believe that we need only adopt a new policy to put us one step closer to a just society, it is necessary to take a closer look at the policy to see if the changes will have their intended effects and to determine whether different policies could be more effective in achieving the stated social goals.
