I've done the adjunct thing, and I'm sympathetic to your point. The current state of post-tenure higher ed is just not sustainable. What exactly is the point of having an overworked person (pulling 60 hours weeks at below minimum wage, as some adjuncts I know do) stand up in front of a group of students and read slides to them that just summarize the textbook chapter that they've all supposedly just read? Luckily for the administrators who've created this situation, most students care so little about actually getting an education that they fail to notice how badly they're being ripped off.
