In a recent radio interview with Jeff Rense<\/a> I touched on a broad range of issues in higher ed right now. While the focus was mostly on the deep hatred of white people in higher ed and associated infestation of Social Justice Warriors, I also mentioned the immense fraud that is accreditation, the horrible fraudulent nature of many of our for-profit, non-profit, and state schools, and, of course, the atrocious student loan scam.<\/p>\n

There are so many grim problems in higher ed that an hour long interview isn\u2019t long enough to even list them all, much less discuss anything in great detail. One problem I missed was the adjunctification of higher education.<\/p>\n

In times past, a professor was fairly respected on campus, and it was a respectable job. You weren\u2019t likely to become a millionaire, but you were allowed a decent living while you engaged in intellectual pursuits and taught the next generation the most advanced (if not necessarily the most useful) subjects humanity had come to know. That\u2019s the image most people have of \u201ccollege professor,\u201d but the reality, like the reality of most things in higher ed, is farrrrrrrrrr different.<\/p>\n

Most college faculty are adjuncts<\/a>, closing in on 70%, and so the adjunct should be what people think of when they hear \u201ccollege professor.\u201d For newcomers to my blog, an adjunct is a part time worker, generally paid less than minimum wage, often qualifying for welfare, and it\u2019s so bad in some areas that the local food banks specialize in just keeping them fed.<\/a><\/p>\n

Administration justifies hiring adjuncts to do most of the work, saying \u201cwell, we only need them for the one semester.\u201d Because they are part-time, adjuncts get no benefits, so this position is not intended to be a long term job. Trouble is, adjuncts end up working this \u201ctemporary\u201d position for years, decades even, waiting for the time that admin realizes \u201chey, we need this guy every semester, have needed him every semester for years, so saying he\u2019s just a temp worker is a lie.\u201d Trouble is, admin has no interest in making this realization, because adjuncts are very, very, cheap, and every $1000 not spend on paying the professor is another $950 that goes into administrative pockets (with the rest generously allowed by the administration to pay for education expenses).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a vicious, nasty, exploitative system, and quirks in the laws mean adjuncts can easily be paid lower than minimum wage, and not even qualify for unemployment between semesters (when they get no paychecks).<\/p>\n

There are many reasons our best and brightest allow this level of exploitation. A big part of it is the huge glut of Ph.D.s, a surplus created by the same leaders in higher ed who profit so mightily from all the cheap labor. To this surplus is added a great number of Educationists <\/a>(also a big source of Social Justice Warriors), as accreditation allows Education to be used as a \u201cjoker\u201d for many lower level college courses.<\/p>\n

A semi-recent article tries to convince adjuncts to keep on slaving away to help administrators buy more lake front property:<\/p>\n

Telling Adjuncts to Quit Is Giving Up on Education<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Hysterically, the author giving the advice not to quit actually quit for himself. I\u2019m scratching my head here on why anyone should take this seriously, or how such an article could even be published.<\/p>\n

My enthusiasm for teaching was undiminished, but I could see trouble on the horizon, consigned to a single course, semester after semester, no room for growth or new challenges. I didn\u2019t want to be angry, or worse, bitter.<\/em><\/p>\n

Because I had some advantages, my transition was easy. I was already making more money writing than teaching. I have an emotionally supportive partner who also could support us financially without me earning a dime.<\/em><\/p>\n

So, knowing the guy doesn\u2019t actually believe what he\u2019s saying, it\u2019s tough to keep reading his words. For the most part, he\u2019s responding to the common idea that \u201call adjuncts should quit at once.\u201d Theoretically, it would help, as simple economics means reducing the supply of potential teachers would lead to higher wages and better working conditions.
\n\u201cTheoretically\u201d is the weasel word here\u2026all adjuncts aren\u2019t going to quit overnight because they\u2019ve student loan payments to make, rent to pay, and so on.
\nUnsurprisingly, the author doesn\u2019t understand either aspect of basic economics and indicates his own reasons why everyone quitting wouldn\u2019t work:<\/p>\n

Will this sort of action cause a giant pot of money to fall from the sky?<\/em><\/p>\n

Uh, higher ed has billions and billions to spend constructing buildings that no student will ever enter<\/a>. Higher ed showers insane amounts of money on legions of diversity commissars, Poo Bahs, and deanlings who have nothing to do with education.<\/p>\n

There is a ridiculously huge sum of money in higher education\u2026the trouble is none of it is going to education. I doubt that all adjuncts quitting overnight would change that but\u2026at least in theory it would help a little.
\nThe author goes further off the rails:<\/p>\n

If adjuncts have truly disappeared, credentials for teaching will be lowered or credit requirements will either be changed or offloaded to \u201calternative\u201d providers.<\/em><\/p>\n

Credentials have already been lowered dramatically, as I\u2019ve already discussed, it\u2019s easy to find \u201cmath education\u201d professors teaching math courses they know nothing about.<\/p>\n

Credit requirements have also been lowered. Computer courses used to be big on campus, but because it was too expensive to hire even dubiously qualified teachers, many campuses have eliminated the programs rather than pay a fair price for teachers of a critical subject for the modern world.<\/p>\n

On many campuses, the vast majority of college courses aren\u2019t even college<\/a>\u2026admin would absolutely reduce requirements further if all adjuncts walked away.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s curious the author doesn\u2019t mention another idea: make classes larger. We already have courses with a 1,000 students in them\u2026the trouble here is most campuses don\u2019t have enough rooms that large. It\u2019s pretty funny, as I watch yet another administrative palace go up, I at least take pleasure in knowing that admin forgot, yet again, to build more oversize auditoriums.<\/p>\n

The rest of the article is more irrelevancies, but some comments bear mention:<\/p>\n

After two years of full-time adjuncting, I’m convinced more than ever that teaching undergraduates is hardly one of the top priorities of higher education. And once you take away the incentive for universities to provide quality education, there’s really nothing they won’t do to deliver a degree for as little cost as possible, including completely removing the human element in education.<\/em><\/p>\n

The above highlights one of the big issues in higher ed: nobody cares about quality. It\u2019s all about just getting those student loan checks into the pockets of administration as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n

The other issue is admin, and a commenter links to an important site. Seriously, the problem is way too many administrators:<\/p>\n

\u2026there is an increasing number of administrators at universities that need to be paid in dollars and cents. He cites a study that shows that for the California State University system, in a 34 year period, the number of of faculty rose by about 3% whereas the number of administrators rose by 221%.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Let the implications of the above sink in. Faculty pay is basically flat (or falling, if you\u2019re an adjunct, which most faculty are nowadays\u2014quirks in accounting mean adjunct pay doesn\u2019t always count as faculty pay), and faculty numbers are flat as well.
\nAdministrative pay is skyrocketing, stratospheric with no end in sight, along with benefits so luxurious that many faculty, if they forego pay and just got administrative benefits, would be better off.
\nAnd administrator numbers are up 221%, over faculty numbers being up 3%, in a period where student population on campus more than quadrupled.
\nAnyway, yes, all adjuncts should quit overnight. Also, we should cure cancer overnight while we\u2019re at it. A more reasonable solution? Kill the student loan scam, as none of that money goes to adjuncts, and all of it goes to the people exploiting them.<\/p>\n
