§ I·Posting Excerpt

The Department of Sociology in the College of Arts and Sciences at American University in Washington, DC invites applications for a number of adjunct faculty positions for upcoming academic years, through an open continuous vacancy announcement used to fill adjunct vacancies as they occur. The department offers both undergraduate and graduate degree programs, and rank depends on the applicant's highest degree earned in Sociology. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis, and the posting advises candidates to continue applying directly to other positions on the university's website in the meantime. Stated per-course rates for candidates without a terminal degree in the course subject area are $2,865 for a 1-2 credit course, $4,725 for a 3-4 credit course and $4,938 for a 5-6 credit course; for candidates with a terminal degree in the subject area the corresponding rates are $3,414, $5,400 and $5,548. Employees in these positions deliver their services from the District of Columbia, Maryland or Virginia, or work on-site at the university, and hiring offers are contingent on successful completion of a background check.
