     Here are a couple of relevant law review articles on the issue of faculty work for hire that I found helpful:

Lape, L. (1992). Ownership of copyrightable works of university professors: The interplay between the Copyright Act and university copyright policies. Villanova Law Review, 37, 223, 227, 243.Patel, S. (1995). Graduate students' ownership and attribution rights in intellectual property. Independent Law Journal, 71, 495. Simon, T. (1991). Faculty writings: Are they "works made for hire" under the 1976 copyright act? In E. Ansell (Ed.), Intellectual property in academe: A legal compendium (p. 233-262). Washington, D. C.: National Association of College and University Attorneys.
