Our District has long talked about tackling serious inequities, from the need for diversity to other social justice issues. But they remain complacent about one glaring inequity, their failure to pay part-time faculty equitably in proportion to full-timers. SMCCCD not only does not pay part-time faculty equitably compared to full-time faculty in our district, they also pay part-time faculty significantly less than other local districts do.
Comparison of Part-Time Faculty Pay:
Bay 10 Districts
Per semester for teaching one 3-unit class
NOTES:
Districts that pay PT Faculty by Hour rather by load: SMCCCD, Ohlone, Contra Costa, Peralta (All others pay by load)
Districts that pay PT Faculty on salary schedule with one column only (i.e. no added compensation for added educational levels): SMCCCD, Chabot. (All others have Mirrored or Semi-Mirrored Salary Schedule with Steps and Columns.)
