The name “The new adjunct” comes from the belief that the current perception of adjuncts is outdated. We’re no longer retired high school teachers, and corporate executives looking to teach a couple of classes on the side. We’re now 20, 30, and even 40+ something’s who have finished Master Degrees and want to pursue teaching as a full-time profession. For many of us the Doctorate may be a couple years away, or a long shot, nestled in the backseat to family lives or in many cases, a much needed break from student status. We no longer seek to represent the “mid-life crisis” of faculty—more qualified than graduate assistants, yet without the credentials of our tenured counterparts.

We are working dilligently on some final revisions and will be launching VERY SOON. Click here to follow our progress on Facebook. We look forward to your participation upon our launch in 2010!
