It's the current system that's partly responsible for skyrocketing costs.

Maybe one could benefit if they load up on them advanced pre-reqs (Cal/AP/Bio/Chem/etc).

Obama suggested, "he must be stopped!"

Besides, the only way to make community college free is through "MORE SPENDING!" (which could very well also mean "MORE TAXES")

and be careful using "professor" like you do
because there are instructors, associate professors, assistant professors and FULL FLEDGED professors and each level holds a certain range of pay.

http://www.npr.org/2014/02/03/268427156/part-time-professors-demand-higher-pay-will-colleges-listen


On a recent day, Wilder and a few colleagues set up a table in the student union to share their stories. One of those with him was Maria Maisto, also an adjunct at Cuyahoga and president of New Faculty Majority, a national support group that's been lobbying for more pay, health insurance, job security and better working conditions.

"We have to stop hiding in the shadows," Maisto said. "We have to not be ashamed to tell our stories."

She says adjuncts here get about $8 an hour. A tall gangly man approached her, pecked at the calculator on his smartphone, and said Maisto's figures were wrong. That was Rudy Stralka, a well-regarded, full-time, tenured business professor at Cuyahoga. He says adjuncts make $22 to $23 an hour, and if you do the math, adjuncts are paid fairly — $160 per class in Maisto's case.

Maisto said she teaches one class that meets for three hours a week; Stralka said that's $26 an hour.

most people who teach at CCs are adjuncts, many instructors, maybe assistant Profs

you seriously are one of the most insufferable people on these boards

$26 per hour DOES NOT equal $500 per semester, your words

it was a bullshit math class or something
like not even algebra level
most entry level instructors at HBCU are immigrants (african/indian) that take the gig just to get a rep

i graduated in 2001 and their checks were often late and short THEN so they were threatening walkouts
even to this day, same shit, instructors having problems with getting paid
im mainly talking about the math/engineering/comp sci courses as that's what course i take and am interested in

when i was in grad school i made a HAIR less than a starting associate prof/lecturer so i wondered why it was a big deal for me to make what i made
(it wasn't really a lot but just the IDEA that a regular employee could make as much as a instructor had the dept in an uproar)
this was at an ivy league school btw

In response to Reply # 34


  

          

I clearly said my classmates made $500 for teaching a 16 week course at a JuCo

JuCo = Junior College
Junior Colleges where they pay $12 a unit or $36 for a English 101 class
maybe have 25 students in the class
so the state collects $900 in tuition for that class
of course the school is subsidized by tax payer funds but damn

you seem to be comparing this JuCo tuition to a proper 4year school where you can pay $4,000 for one graduate course (as i did in school, but i think it is up to $6,000 per class now)


why you wanna be mean to me astral?
i aint be got no weapon

im concerned about the feasibility of it since we already have problems paying the instructors at JuCos now

i guess we could raise federal taxes or cut some other prorgrams to get this jumped off

DoD cut use a haircut but you know that won't happen as it supports MANY jobs

23. "they should both be free or minimal cost (with conditions)"
In response to Reply # 20


  

          

state and private universities should be substantially cheaper also, or at least have some accountability in terms of what they charge and what they return.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

how you going to make something be free when you can't sustain it when ppl have to pay for it outta pocket now?

and if public unis should be cheaper, how much should/will they pay their professors?

and how you going to regulate the amount a PRIVATE school charges for tuition?
that's hella socialist.

how many courses are being taught by lecturers and adjuncts (some of whom have PhDs and/or considerable professional experience) for $15K a year? i don't see the tuition hikes trickling down to those people.

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

21. "why not do like Europe and last 2 yrs high school be TRADE SCHOOL"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

in England and Austria you typically finish "high school" at 16
then you have the option of doing more school for another two years
this would be equivalent to JuCo here in the states

but in these two years you learn a trade or specific skillset of some sort

i think kids should spend less time learning about shakespeare and more time about how to keep these spheres from shaking

One of the counties are looking into making the last 2 years of High School college credits equivalent so students graduate with 30 credits banked already.

Thats the kind of educational reform that makes a real difference.

There was a highschool not too far from the one I went to that had a technical program. You started in 11th grade and could do electrical, automotive, cosmetology, hvac, IT, culinary arts,etc
