Adjuncts—We Are the University: An orientation on contingency in higher education and the challenges faced by adjunct educators |
Up to 75% of higher education faculty are considered contingent, non-tenure track educators, often holding adjunct status. The shift in hiring practices has taken place over a 40-year period and has reached critical levels, especially in foundational classes. Often, precarious positions are insecure, institutionally unsupported, and economically unstable, with low pay and no benefits or resources in or outside the classroom. Because of this, meeting the needs of the student can also be a challenge. Adjuncts take on many of the same responsibilities of full-time or tenure track professors, including faculty development and maintaining accreditation standards. They make themselves available to students outside class, even though they may not have an office. They have no assurance beyond good faith that they will still be working in the same capacity for the next academic term. Frequently, an adjunct needs to work at more than one job in order to earn a living wage, or to depend on the income of a spouse to make ends meet. Despite having worked for a school regularly for years, contingent educators often find that they have no voice within their institutions. While teaching the same classes and performing the same duties in the classroom, adjunct professors receive a fraction of what their full-time and tenure track counterparts receive--and yet students pay the same tuition fee, regardless of the teacher in the classroom.
Economic and political uncertainty have similar effects for both adjunct instruction and at-risk communities, including minority, bilingual, and ESL students. This presentation discusses the topic of adjunctification in higher education, the effect this reality has on both teachers and students, and why this needs to change. In short, bilingual and ESL student populations are often at-risk communities who need more support, not less. And if their professor is not supported, neither are their students.
