Many community colleges are desperate for adjuncts, particularly people who can teach during the day, as the pay is generally miserable and most people who adjunct have regular 8-5 jobs. Until you teach the same course for the third time and have figured out how to teach it well and can reuse prior lesson plans, expect to earn no more than ten dollars an hour given all the time to prep your lessons and grade.
A lot of adjuncts do not find the effort worth it and do not sign up to teach again.
I do not think any one of us would have any difficulty getting through the short perfunctory interview for an adjunct position. As long as you don’t have a social media presence that identifies your conservative stances in connection with your legal name, you need only show in an interview a love of your subject matter and desire to share it. I doubt many questions about politics would come up in an interview and they can be easily deflected by saying you are not into politics.
Ahh, so the short lived stent as an adjunct you attribute more to the pay scale that you mentioned, and not so much to the rejection of any suspected conservative political leanings that the college board may be quick to hold against an adjunct. Thx, very much.
