We present information from an examination of 25 adjunct faculty collective bargaining agreements spanning a variety of different types of institutions. We examine issues related to employment security, benefits, seniority, payment for cancelled classes, evaluation and just cause discharge. While modest salary increases have been achieved, the key issue of job security, although addressed in the agreements, in practice is not addressed in a manner that provides an effective means by which adjunct faculty can achieve such security.
