Adjunct Professor means the part-timer hired to teach a course that the full-timers don’t want to teach. It is not a prestigious position. It may sound important, but it is not.
I like Ted, but Adjunct Professor doesn’t bolster hie resume.
Adjunct is typically where all professors start their teaching career regardless of their capability. Thankfully Cruz quickly moved on from there to more important things.
Where the resume needs beef is with the Senate portion.
Seriously, is that all you’ve got? From that whole resume, that’s all you could cull out? I doubt if Jesus Christ Himself could meet up to your expectations!
Heck I am an adjunct at out local community college.
I teach an AutoCAD drawing class and an AutoCAD Architecture class. Not a big deal. The day time instructor doesn't want to do the night classes so I do it and pick up a couple of extra bucks every year.
The school has about 50-60 adjuncts. It is a lot cheaper for them to hire us and not pay us the benefits that we are already getting from our regular employer.
I have nothing agains “Adjunct Professor”. After all, the most important credential our current President has on his resume is “Adjunct Professor”. Or was that just a Legal Lecturer? That’s right, he didn’t have to administrate tests, homework or grades. He just talked.
Verga, no offense intended. I just cringed at the thought when I saw it. Especially in light of it being a minor point in an otherwise long list of creds. Somebody should put Cruz’s resume up next to Obamas. It would also be nice to put their College transcripts next to each other. But, alas, Obama’s are lost forever.
