Inside Higher Ed: Punishing a Whistle Blower?
A year ago, Gerald J. Davey, an adjunct at San Antonio College, was the whistle blower on a practice that angered fellow adjuncts nationwide.
The college, like many, has rules that provide benefits and higher base pay to those who teach 12 credits or more. But as a condition of receiving some courses that put them at the 12-credit threshold, some adjuncts were being required to agree in writing to pretend that they were only teaching 11 credits. So adjuncts who needed the base pay had to lie, and lose out on benefits, to get the courses they needed.
