Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

One Meeeelionnn dollars.

But seriously, can you pro-rate from what a full-time prof's salary would be? That's just a guess....

eta: OK, pro'lly not a prof, since you're not one.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

David, I have that book, but haven't gotten around to reading it yet. I'll kick it up a couple notches in the queue.

Kate, let me know if you're interested in Tropicalia after the book. I've got a bunch, and it's on the expensive side so I could send you some.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's a wildflower status of 7?!?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

aurelia, my impression is that adjunct faculty basically make zero dollars. Or like one or two dollars, tops. But that's as much as I know.

What I don't know is what would be reasonable fee. Any thoughts/advice from the hivemind?

This is going to be hard to judge without knowing their standard contracts. We pay $5000 at my large public university. Nationally known private universities pay more. On the other hand, the local community college pays $850.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

We pay $5000 at my large public university. Nationally known private universities pay more. On the other hand, the local community college pays $850.

For what time period? Per semester?

my impression is that adjunct faculty basically make zero dollars. Or like one or two dollars, tops. But that's as much as I know.

If it doesn't at least cover gas and lunch I'm gonna pass.

That it should do. I just know my mom teaches because she likes it, not because of the money -- it makes her nowhere near her regular consulting rate, even after having taught the same class for a while, which brings the prep time needed way down.
