Under his leadership\, the Labor Studies program has taught over 25\,000 SFSU undergraduates and placed several dozen Labor Studies majors in union jobs at the state\, national\, and international levels. Between 2000-2009\, he was an assistant and associate professor of comparative labor at the London School of Economics and Political Science\, where he convened the master’s programs in International Employment Relations and European Labor Studies. He was also Research Director at the UC Berkeley Labor Center from 2009-2010 and a postdoc at the UCLA Institute for Labor and Employment from 2001-2003. Logan has published widely on unions\, labor law\, and employer opposition to unionization\, both in the United State and internationally\, including\, most recently\, several articles on the high-profile union campaigns at Starbucks and Amazon. His publications have appeared in Industrial Relations\, British Journal of Industrial Relations\, New Labor Forum\, Journal of Labor Research\, International Labor and Working-Class History\, International Union Rights\, Dissent\, Advances in Labor and Industrial Relations\, and Work Organization\, Labor\, and Globalization\, State of California Labor\, and many other journals. Logan has worked extensively with state\, national and global union federations over the past twenty years and has conducted union research in countries ranging from India to Malawi to Paraguay. He has also published over 200 opinion columns in major publications – including The Hill\, The Conversation\, The Guardian\, Associated Press\, Reuters\, Politico\, San Francisco Chronicle\, Jacobin\, and many others – and he has been quoted and interviewed on labor issues in state\, national\, and international media\, including the New York Times\, Washington Post\, Wall Street Journal\, Associated Press\, Reuters\, The Guardian\, CNN\, NPR\, BBC News\, Bloomberg TV\, thousands of times. \nDuring this public talk John will outline his vision for the growth and development of the UCLA Labor Center as a nexus of labor scholarship\, innovation\, and debate over the next 5-10 years. He believes the labor movement is at a particularly promising juncture\, especially in California\, and the UCLA Labor Center has unique potential to play a key leadership role in bringing together academics\, practitioners\, students\, and the community to advance labor education and research. He will discuss methods such as the expansion of the Labor Studies program\, direction of applied research projects\, increased public programming\, and heightened engagement with the university\, labor movement\, and community\, including through student participation in internships and research\, by which such goals can be attained. He will outline his plan to further establish the UCLA Labor Center as the premier national institution for labor scholarship and how that will attract a diverse\, dedicated\, and dynamic group of individuals to the Labor Center as students\, speakers\, and instructors; uplift California workers and unions; and position the Labor Center as a sought-after and expert contributor to discourse about labor and workers’ rights across the state\, nationally\, and globally
