It probably happens, but I don’t know any adjuncts that are cruising by on their parents’ money. Or any that I would even suspect of that. Almost all of them are over 40, for one. Everyone is gigging, has a breadwinner spouse, or is a bored retiree.

It happens but not at CUNY. Besides my time at CUNY I have taught at two other institution of ivy league caliber and that is where you find the independently wealthy adjuncts and professors.
