Did the current host of your latest adjunct job make the list? Did it make you laugh? Are you considering writing the administration to explain why YOU don't consider it such a "great place to work"?

Mine did and it was featured in one of the articles. It actually rang fairly true in my opinion.

Which articles?
It's called "2008 Great Colleges to Work For" and it's located in the Special Issues & Data section, but a web pass or subscription is required to read it.
Link, anyone?

As I understand it, only 89 schools agreed to have the survey answered at their school. I know my school did not participate because the administration knows the school would not come out high on a satisfaction scale. Five years ago, I think we could have come out on top.
