The life of a professor sounds like the best dream, and for a lucky few, it is. Once you get that tenured position of happiness, there really isn’t much to complain about. But that’s not the life of a significant percentage of those teaching college classes.


Between undergrade and postgraduate, I have had at least 5 or more adjunct professors because I am in Journalism and because I took a few film studies classes while in undergraduate. All of them were connected to the field they were teaching and all but one of them who taught well except this one who barely taught us anything and just wanted us to read from textbooks. Two of the professors, I had were adjuncts because they taught full time at another college.
