I wonder how any of the 44% adjunct faculty are teaching in the School for Continuing Studies as opposed to the Main Campus? Given the number of nontenured part time faculty identified in the graph (967), it must consist largely of the SCS faculty. The schedule of the Lebanon-born engineer-turned-writer-and-adjunct-instructor is hectic. On a recent Monday, El-Amine, 59, started his day prepping coursework in his office at Georgetown, drove to lecture at AU and ended the day back at Georgetown. “This is the life of an adjunct, right,” El-Amine said while driving to teach a class on Arabic film he designed for Georgetown. From all these roles, he is making about $16,400 this semester. About 50 percent of GWU’s nearly 2,500 instructors are adjuncts. At AU, 46 percent of instructors are adjuncts, and 44 percent of those at Georgetown are teaching part time. www.washingtonpost.com/education/2022/04/26/adjunct-professor-american-georgetown-gwu/

Small sample size, but my Sophomore son has one adjunct, one PhD student, and three full-time professors this semester. In the Fall, he will have three adjuncts, one PhD student, and one full-time professor. And for this, I have the pleasure of paying $80K+.
