Abstract
In a study of colleges and universities, unionized institutions are found to be less effective than nonunionized institutions on eight of nine dimensions of effectiveness. Statistically significant differences in effectiveness are present in the academic domain and in the ability to acquire resources. Three models of faculty unionism and organizational effectiveness are proposed.Keywords
