This may well be the best use of the internet ever: crowd-sourcing adjunct working conditions as way to introduce transparency to and positive pressure on institutions that exploit the holy hell out of their highly skilled and dedicated workers.
Get on it.
$6,800 per 3 crédit course would be heaven since I 1,700 meant forgoing breakfast and lunch on most days. An office space (teeny tiny will do, shared will do) would be nice too.
Wow, that is an eye-opening spreadsheet. And $1700/semester is rough stuff!
I don’t know much about how adjuncts get treated here, but I know we lag behind other comparable universities for TA salaries.
Important post.
This is brilliant! Comparing how much a TA gets per year and how he/she is treated by the university in the USA, Canada, UK, and other countries.
