[quote=Anonymous]What field? What is your current salary? 70% of college instruction is currently performed by adjunct instructors. You maybe have a 50% chance of landing an adjunct spot if you have a good degree and publications. You can expect average pay of just south of 3K per course. You maybe could teach 5 courses per semester without kiling yourself? As long as they were spread across no more than 2 separate institutions. Also, you probably won't get health insurance. Honestly? Doing a PhD in order to teach is a career path that I would dissuade anyone from at the moment. You need to seriously research this before you commit.
