Are you referring to the tenure track job or to the adjuncting positions here?
To get the job, I simply sent letters and resumes to colleges

Nancy -
I'm there too. I too have been seeking alternate
arrangements.
wondering if you have any advice gleaned from the textbook route - sounds
interesting.
Here the schools are 3 hours apart and pay 400 - 500 per credit (1200 -
1500 per 3 credit class). wouldn't pay gas and parking and
tolls.

I think this whole discussion is unfortunate if it simply diminishes into
hurling insults and criticisms. Many part-timers or sessionals are very
capable but because of the competitive nature of the work environment now
may not so easily slip into a full-time or tenure track position.
The result

Ah, Payam, building a new library is far more "sexier" than issuing pay
raises. And, as far as the increase in student enrollment is concerned,
the paradox is that the more students attend a public school, the more it
costs the State.
Make it a good day.
That is quite an assumption you make... that is, that if a full-time
position openned up, you'd get it. I'll bet that when full-time positions
do open up, they are pretty competitive. I am currently chairing a search
committee for our dept. that has drawn about 85 applicants.

Yes I would like more full-time offers which would
make me and other part-timers FULL-TIME emloyed and
not out of a job or have to struggle with small
part-time incomes.

Would you rather have them hire more full-timers, which may put you
completely out of a job?

No Louis, it is NOT The lack of funds. This is the
best EXCUSE all institutions will give but rarely is

bigger increases in immigration and baby boomers

Due to a lack of full-time, tenure track positions,
Payam, that adjuncting is a deliberate undermining of the tenure system by
administrators is a gross assumption. The truth is that the law of supply
and demand is in force; there are budget crunches; there is an increase in
enrollment; and, yes, there is a weakened moral core in both faculty and
Title: Re: adjuncting
I have
heard about and seen the same thing with regard to the failure to consider
adjuncts for available positions.
Although, at my institution, I have seen adjuncts receive “temporary” full-time
jobs, it appears as though there is a preference for hiring personnel
I was not talking about obtaining full-time positions
at the same place necessarily. I was talking about
trying to obtain a full-time teaching ANYWHERE!!

What you are missing is that all part-timers know that

I know it is a stepping stone and most part-timers
have been trying to become full-time and on the tenure
track but have not been able to for many reasons
beyond their control. The big reason being lack of

Tasha,
The answer to your question "why are people not able
to get tenure track jobs" is very a very simple
answer. Many part-timers are not able to get full-time
tenure tracks jobs because not many colleges or
universities offer full-time positions INTENTIONALLY.
The academic world has unfortuna
I have a question regarding the responses to my post so far. Why are
