What don't you like about working at College of Southern Nevada?

"Adjuncts make $2k for each course after taxes. The salary rate posted here looks unreal. Adjuncts are allowed to teach three courses per semester. Do the math (definitely not 26k).Adjunct have to beg for every single class. Secretaries assign the classes and full-timers can bump adjunct any time.Written and oral requirements often do not match.Policies are set by administrators whose only interest is to keep themselves needed.Most classrooms have no windows and the wall-to-wall carpets are musty."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"(1) I would offer full-time positions to adjunct instructors who have successfully worked for the college for years.(2) I would eliminate unnecessary/abortive programs and lower salaries for high-ranking administrators. I would prepare a balance sheet that would keep only profitable programs alive.(3) Lower the administrative load on teachers."
