First book on gender and academic service.All tenured and tenure-track faculy know the trinity of promotion and tenure criteria: research, teaching, and service. While teaching and research are relatively well defined areas of institutional focus and evaluation, service work is rarely tabulated or analyzed as a key aspect of higher education’s political economy. Instead, service, silent and invisible, coexists with the formal “official†economy of many institutions, just as women’s unrecognized domestic labor props up the formal, official economies of countries the world over. Over Ten Million Served explores what academic service is and investigates why this labor is often not acknowledged as “labor†by administrators or even by faculty themselves, but is instead relegated to a gendered form of institutional caregiving. By analyzing the actual labor of service, particularly for women and racial, ethnic, and sexual minorities, contributors expose the hidden economy of institutional service, challenging the feminization of service labor in the academy for both female and male academic laborers.“…a perceptive collection that aims to break silences and rile assumptions regarding university service practices/policies in the United States … [it] has the potential to serve a wide range of audiences as a vital addition to the ongoing critique of the amped-up, superserviceable, capitalistic version of higher education at which so many of us wince—and desire to actively transform.†— Enculturation“Building their reflections around Hogan’s idea of women’s contributions as ‘superserviceable,’ the editors and contributors take an expansive view of service, defining it broadly to include not only administration and community service but also certain types of academic work, among other activities. The articles are both rigorous and personal … The volume constitutes an important contribution to the scholarship both on faculty roles and rights and on gender in the academy.†— On Campus with Women“Over Ten Million Served is an ambitious attempt to reconceive service and its place in the academic workplace. It has a moral seriousness and a topicality that make it an effort that really can’t be ignored. It’s a book whose time has come.†— Bruce Robbins, author of Upward Mobility and the Common Good: Toward a Literary History of the Welfare State“This collection performs important intellectual work in analyzing a truth almost universally unacknowledged: that service in the academy upholds an economy crucial to, but not often credited by, the institutions that benefit from it. In discussing the ‘genderization’ of service, Massé, Hogan, and their collaborators shed light on the invisible labor performed in and for the academy.†— Karen R.
