Why have many universities begun hiring more adjunct professors? Universities want to hire the most highly-educated faculty they can and adjunct professors typically hold PhDs or other terminal degrees in their fields.

Many universities are under pressure to cap salaries at $60,000 so adjunct professors who agree to “job-share” make this more possible.

They are more cost-effective to hire than full-time professors because they are given fewer benefits, like health insurance.

Universities are following the trend of European schools who began hiring more adjunct professors decades ago.

Arunner is jogging at a steady 3.6 km/hr. when the runner is 2.9 km from the finish line, a bird begins flying from the runner to the finish line at 14.4 km/hr (4 times as fast as the runner). when the bird reaches the finish line, it turns around and flies back to the runner. even though the bird is a dodo, we will assume that it occupies only one point in space, i.e., a zero-length bird. how far does the bird travel? (b) after this first encounter, the bird then turns around and flies from the runner back to the finish line, turns around again and flies back to the runner. the bird repeats the back and forth trips until the runner reaches the finish line. how far does the bird travel from the beginning? (i.e. include the distance traveled to the first encounter)
