Doctoral Study on Adjunct Hiring Practices**Please consider participating in this study.
Doctoral candidate Tiray Johnson is conducting a study A Grounded Theory Study: Hiring Practices as Experienced from an Adjunct Faculty Perspective. This research study seeks to identify the hiring practices that are being utilized to procure the services of adjunct faculty. This study will use a grounded theory approach to guide and structure the research. Participants in the adjunct capacity from various academic institutions will be examined to capture their experiences with academic hiring. A comparative analysis will be used to code the results, with the attempt to develop/document a process or theory. The expectation is that the pending research will document various approaches to the practices in use for the hiring of adjunct faculty. Participants are needed for this study and the link to the study is attached below.
