[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But putting aside whether these PhD holders are making poor decisions, and some of them are, the fact that universities can and do pay people so little is appalling. The salary is not at all commensurate with experience or education. [/quote] Yes, it is. The typical adjunct is someone in their 20s, and this is their first real job. What they do could be (and often, is) done by TAs, i.e., even less experienced people who do not even have PhDs yet.[/quote]
