  REVIEWS

  PAGES
  Ghosts in the Classroom:In matters of the heart, self-deception is a tired theme for women across the centuries, and no doubt millennia. Unfortunately, it seems to have been adopted by adjuncts, possibly because they excel at using their brains but are still ruled by their hearts.

  OPINION

  UNCONVENTIONAL WISDOM
  "Soul Work and Thunderstorms." Lee Shainen bets the farm that adjuncts want to share their stories.

  FIRST PERSON
  "The Remedial Rollercoaster." Remedial education is in dire need of a more effective branding campaign.

  THE LAST WORD
  "S.P.Q.R."
