Abstract:

The use of adjunct faculty positions has been a growing reality for over thirty years in colleges and universities across the nation. The adjunct faculty makes up 46% of the college and university teachers and 65 % of the adjunct and non-tenure track positions (Euban, 2006). The adjunct professors do not have permanent positions with the university. Usually, they are hired on a semester by semester basis and do not have a full-time contract. These part-time positions are considered a minimum teaching load that does not require the professors to have research or administrative responsibilities. Their employment is dependent on the number of students who enroll in each course offered and they are paid by the number of hours they teach (Kamps, 1996; Wegner, MacGregor & Watson, 2003).
