<p>My son would say that one of the adjuncts he had ranked as one of the top 3 or 4 faculty he had during his college career. On the other hand there was at least one FT tenured faculty that probably shouldn’t have even been taking tickets at a movie theater (definitely the exception, though). </p>
<p>At the college where he took some summer courses, the one adjunct was just a waste of time - cancelled 3 of twelve classes, 4-5 of the remaining class meetings were taken up with project presentations, and always let the class leave after 1 1/2 hours each class night (it was a 4 hour class). But that is also lack of administration oversight as well.</p>
