I see this everywhere, and have been a part of the adjunct system for a while. When working with teachers of adults, part timers work longer hours than a number of full timers for little or no benefits. At one point the NJALL even organised a session at their annual conference on how to make a living as a part timer (or something to that effect) by inviting people from the insurance/pension companies, etc. It is a very hard choice (?) to pursue a career as a part timer in education. I remember working as an adjunct as a graduate student as well... regards, Ujwala __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
