we have a union, I think....

As I wrote before, there are about 52 adjuncts in our illustratious developmental education department, but only 2 are full time employees. And they are the department heads for ESL.

Why should most of us be paid an hourly rate while two are paid at least twice as much for less teaching? They also receive medical benefits while we don't. I just don't see the logic of it if we are a union.

Furthermore, I have never heard of so many adjunct instructors before. Even IVC has more full time instructors than us.

So what is the college doing with all its savings? Who knows.

And what is the union doing to help us? I see proposals but nothing that will fundamentally change our position of inferiority and poverty.
