Are you clueless as to how academia works? Most on this list have grad students that teach undergrads.

OP, the answer is, top SLACS like Amherst, Wesleyan, Williams, Haverford, etc. I went to Wesleyan and all of my classes except for one were taught by PHDs. Only two adjuncts and they were PHDs. Everyone else tenured or tenure track with PhDs. The only prof I had who who was not a PhD had an MFA and taught writing. Zero grad students teaching.

Basically, you need to go somewhere that does not have graduate schools. Wesleyan technically has a couple grad programs, but not enough to make a difference.
