Today we hear from a professor of sociology, and I should clarify that she is an adjunct professor. If you aren’t familiar with the U.S. university system, this is a way that colleges and universities can hire Ph.D.s and other well-educated, skilled professors to teach their classes at a fraction of the cost of a full-time professor. It’s a great deal for the universities and terrible for the adjuncts, but what are you going to do? Someone else will take the gig if you don’t. I probably can’t solve that problem, but it does serve as some context for our caller’s question: how can she create extra income, preferably using the skills she’s spent years training in?“I’m an adjunct professor of sociology. I enjoy teaching, but as you may know, adjunct instructors have it pretty bad. I make less than $3,000 for an entire course, which goes for a whole semester and requires lots of prep work and student interaction in addition to the actual teaching. I'm not complaining—okay, maybe I am—but since I'm probably not going to change how higher education works in America these days, do you have any suggestions about how I could increase my income?”Listen to today's episode to learn more...
