…a cross-country campaign designed to raise awareness about the adjunctification of the American university.
@AdjunctAcrossAmerica describes his campaign:
While crossing the country by bicycle and adjuncting online, I’ll be visiting over 35 cities to interview adjuncts, non-tenure track faculty, researchers, administrators, politicians, graduate students, and unionists about contingent labor.
The trip is entirely self-supported and will be financed by teaching online at two colleges (that pay $2050 and $1350 per course, respectively). Along the way, I will save costs by stealth-camping (secretly camping in public or private areas) and cooking my own food, which is the only way such a campaign can be afforded on an adjunct wage. Phase I of this project is designed to conduct targeted interviews throughout the West in Summer 2015. I am currently seeking interviews for Phase II of this project, where I will ride coast-to-coast in May-August 2016.
