| @JeffreyKeefer | Like many things in the life of an adjunct, things do not go as expected and we make due and just-in-time make next steps! #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:05:59 |
| @frankblues | #AdjunctChat Hi! I’m Alex Langshall, I teach Film, Theater, and Communications at Salt Lake Community College. | 6/10/2014 16:06:55 |

| @JeffreyKeefer | Q1 I wonder how many of us here in #AdjunctChat today even see ourselves as members of any adjunct communities? | 6/10/2014 16:11:14 |
| @polypel88 | A1: twitter helps us form communities where uni fail to include our voice #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:11:16 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @polypel88 Do you feel part of an adjunct community? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:11:43 |
| @frankblues | @polypel88 @JeffreyKeefer @whowewilltobe @fabianbanga @ProfessorF74 @FromPhDtoLife A1: Insert easy and universal answer here. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:12:22 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @polypel88 A1 I wonder if communities may form regardless of what may happen in one uni or another? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:12:23 |
| @fabianbanga | @polypel88 A1: I think SM communities r working very well. many also in facebook, and G+ #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:12:39 |
| @polypel88 | @JeffreyKeefer that’s true. Adjunct seems to be such a displaced term. Very liminal. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:12:40 |
| @frankblues | @JeffreyKeefer I feel like I participate in many communities as an adjunct, but not in communities specifically for adjuncts. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:13:20 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @frankblues A1 I find Twitter an easier path to community, as physical ones often conflict with times #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:13:32 |

| @JeffreyKeefer | @polypel88 A1 I am not sure that being an adjunct is a liminal place for everybody; some choose and choose to remain that way #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:14:24 |
| @frankblues | @JeffreyKeefer Physicality is also a problem for scheduling, busy lives, and institutions with spread out campuses. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:15:06 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @frankblues A1 This is a topic that has increasingly intrigued me; lots of opportunities here for those who are open to it #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:15:20 |

| @JeffreyKeefer | RT @VCVaile: A1 multiple, overlapping groups, #distributednetworks ~ no one has to or can be in all #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:19:18 |
| @polypel88 | A1: I would be intrigued to see a physical space where adjuncts gather. Just to observe. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:19:50 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | A1 My adjunct support systems are Twitter focused and, ironically, do not include any adjuncts at the unis where I teach #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:20:06 |
| @Comprof1 | @JeffreyKeefer Actually I’ve found #adjunctchat #ecrchat #acwri and @ResearchGate have given me great support this semester. | 6/10/2014 16:20:34 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | Given that for those in North America and Europe we are approaching the summer, things begin to change #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:20:52 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | Q2: What did you learn from them last year? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:20:56 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @Comprof1 Welcome to #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:21:10 |
| @Comprof1 | @JeffreyKeefer I also have FT faculty that I’ve worked with and do research with to be very supportive. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:21:13 |
| @polypel88 | @JeffreyKeefer mine too! Should we be expected to include others from the uni? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:21:29 |
| @voicethread | @polypel88 Space is always an issue for adjuncts, isn’t it? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:21:35 |

| @VCVaile | @JeffreyKeefer what is a support system? Surely variable…how does a professional one differ from a personal one? #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:21:47 |
| @voicethread | RT @JeffreyKeefer: Q2: What did you learn from them last year? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:21:51 |
| @frankblues | @polypel88 #AdjunctChat Put “Adjunct-only” in appropriate quotes. | 6/10/2014 16:22:23 |
| @Comprof1 | @JeffreyKeefer Actually, I’ve been here but multitasking so not been tweeting. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:22:27 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | A2 Last year, my primary adjunct support system was via connections I made through #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:22:29 |

| @JeffreyKeefer | @VCVaile Great question; I find support systems all meld together in my experience . . . #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:23:19 |
| @fabianbanga | @polypel88 difficult to even meet with our adjunct f2f prof in my department / eclectic schedules #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:23:33 |
| @VCVaile | @Comprof1 @JeffreyKeefer ohh…Virginia, sounds like what I am doing too #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:23:38 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @frankblues @polypel88 Wow, an annual adjunct conference! #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:24:03 |
| @Comprof1 | @VCVaile @JeffreyKeefer Good ?. I’m finding the personal support has been diminishing as I have more responsibilities/less opp #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:24:30 |
| @frankblues | #AdjunctChat A2: The things that I learn over and over: we aren’t alone. We are superb at what we do. We are undervalued by our institution. | 6/10/2014 16:24:45 |

| @Comprof1 | @JeffreyKeefer @VCVaile I kept jumping the hoops w/ goal in mind. At phd, goals have to be readjusted. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:27:51 |
| @AdjunctChat | Q2: What did you learn from them last year? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:27:53 |
| @VCVaile | Communities are where you find them & how make connections #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:28:13 |
| @Comprof1 | @JeffreyKeefer @VCVaile Hard for those outside of academia to understand the changes over last 25 yrs. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:28:22 |
| @voicethread | #AdjunctChat How many of you trek to multiple schools/campuses every day? | 6/10/2014 16:28:44 |

| @VCVaile | PS #AdjunctAnarchy is a great topic name #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:29:43 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | A2 I learned from my adjunct community in 2014 that experiences & perspectives are far more diverse, and rich, than I imagined #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:30:25 |
| @frankblues | @voicethread #AdjunctChat I used to, up to two campuses for the same institution. Now with a bit of “seniority,” not anymore. | 6/10/2014 16:30:39 |

| @Comprof1 | @AdjunctChat Q2 one thing I learned from #adjunctchat was to start thinking outside of traditional academics. Looking at consulting/research | 6/10/2014 16:31:02 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | RT @VCVaile: Communities are where you find them & how make connections #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:31:02 |
| @VCVaile | @fabianbanga @JeffreyKeefer agreed…virtual support helps but cannot replace IRL & on specific campus #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:31:36 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @VCVaile @frankblues I would even say that communities are where you make them; we have to be actively involved! #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:31:40 |
| @polypel88 | A2: some campuses in TX limit adjuncts to 15 total hours per year. Anyone else experience that? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:32:06 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | RT @Comprof1: @AdjunctChat Q2 one thing I learned from #adjunctchat was to start thinking outside of traditional academics. Looking at… | 6/10/2014 16:32:11 |
| @VCVaile | another variant on think global…act local #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:32:39 |
| @frankblues | @JeffreyKeefer @VCVaile Problematic when the communities are being created by the institution. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:32:51 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @VCVaile @fabianbanga Alas, with so many adjuncts teaching in many programs, unclear when passing who is even in the same dept #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:32:59 |
| @Comprof1 | Q2 also, many adjuncts/contingents out there. Not so resentful of those I’m competing for jobs with. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:33:03 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | I sometimes think the #DivideAndConquer happens just by not have dept meetings or any structures for involvement #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:33:35 |
| @VCVaile | @frankblues then create new ones of your own…virtual for the campus maybe…http://t.co/IVTpAyBpe1 #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:33:55 |
| @Comprof1 | @polypel88 We have that (2 courses per semester). #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:34:09 |
| @frankblues | @polypel88 Utah: limited to 74% of FTE per semester (11 cr hours Fall or Spring, 9 during summer). #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:34:12 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | Q3: How do these shift / expand / decline over the summer? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:34:17 |
| @polypel88 | @voicethread I do not but @mgbaker22 do three different ones last fall and 7days per week. #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:34:28 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | A3 I find I still work FT and teach ongoing during the summer, so no real changes for me #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:34:56 |

| @fabianbanga | @JeffreyKeefer Thinking as a chair, learned that exploitation = weaken our performances as departments. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:35:56 |
| @Comprof1 | @JeffreyKeefer Also, not having transparency in hiring/termination results in #divideandconquer. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:35:57 |
| @polypel88 | Chatting works better on the laptop rather than the phone. Typos galore #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:36:28 |
| @VCVaile | my local support support network may b3 unraveling so reset for survival will probably be my summer gig #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:36:49 |
| @frankblues | @JeffreyKeefer #AdjunctChat No classes in May, so more reading / online activity. Summer classes seem easier to teach, so more time to think | 6/10/2014 16:37:11 |
| @fabianbanga | @JeffreyKeefer @VCVaile We have to put the topic out there for discussion on our campuses #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:37:29 |
| @Comprof1 | @frankblues @polypel88 One school I worked at limited # of terms to 8 b/c ANY faculty could then apply for tenure even nonTT #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:37:53 |
| @VCVaile | @Comprof1 then how do you make/bring about transparency? that lack not #divideandconquer is the real task/issue #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:38:21 |
| @Comprof1 | @frankblues @JeffreyKeefer Me too. Summer courses don’t start until June. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:38:44 |
| @Comprof1 | @VCVaile Easier with Union. But I think there needs to be more transparency even w/ union w/ adjunct bill of rights. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:39:54 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @Comprof1 @frankblues I am already in week 3 of the first summer session! #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:40:13 |

| @frankblues | @VCVaile @Comprof1 No guarantee of continuity for employ is an obstacle. We are “at-will” hired. No reason needed not to renew. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:40:25 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @frankblues Goodness, now you want time to think?!?! #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:41:08 |
| @frankblues | @Comprof1 @VCVaile I’m in a state with long history of union-busting. So are many. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:41:18 |
| @Comprof1 | @VCVaile We need to get rid of “at will” employment & change to “for reason” (declining enrollment, change in curriculum) #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:41:24 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | A3 I do find summer classes are sometimes a little smaller, so more time to focus #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:41:34 |
| @voicethread | @polypel88 @mgbaker22 Wow-that’s a lot of turbulence. In my experience, all the travel+late class times= disconnected feeling. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:41:46 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | A3 The irony is that the smaller a class I teach, the more I say and the more we discuss, and thus class takes longer! #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:42:02 |
| @frankblues | @JeffreyKeefer And time to read student work. And interact with students outside of class time. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:42:12 |
| @Comprof1 | @JeffreyKeefer @frankblues I’m teaching an intensive online course (4 weeks). #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:42:25 |

| @polypel88 | @Comprof1 @frankblues that is one of the reasons they limit it here. No possibility for tenure #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:42:53 |

| @Comprof1 | @VCVaile What if it were federal? I know, it’s more practical at state level. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:47:58 |
| @frankblues | #AdjunctChat A4: I want to take a bigger sense of activism. More blogging, more tweeting, more speaking, more community building. | 6/10/2014 16:48:53 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | Any other goals for the summer and into the new uni year? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:48:59 |
| @Comprof1 | @JeffreyKeefer In what areas? Will you have time for that? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:49:08 |
| @VCVaile | @Comprof1 that is not how labor law works…changes at federal are also very, very difficult #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:49:26 |

| @JeffreyKeefer | @frankblues Sounds great; activism toward what? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:49:38 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @frankblues I agree with you that community building is quite valuable #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:50:00 |
| @Comprof1 | @JeffreyKeefer Is your fulltime job supportive of publishing/professional development? #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:50:03 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @Comprof1 Alas, I never seem to have time, you are right #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:50:38 |
| @polypel88 | A4: I would like to focus on professional development and publications in the new year. Maybe approach a new journal this time #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:51:05 |
| @frankblues | @JeffreyKeefer Our discussion is part of a bigger problem of how education is commodified in this country, from K to College. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:51:16 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @Comprof1 However, with some shifts at work and such, I do not have well-articulated professional goals right now 😦 #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:51:23 |

| @JeffreyKeefer | @Comprof1 Supportive in that they encourage, not so much with financially supporting them #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:52:10 |
| @VCVaile | A4 new year plans depend on changes in personal support system…major changes likely there… #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:52:11 |
| @Comprof1 | Got to go. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:52:23 |
| @frankblues | #AdjunctChat A4: Also, and this is hard for me, giving up any dream of FT/TT teaching in the near future. | 6/10/2014 16:52:46 |
| @Coach_Reliable | RT @polypel88: Chatting works better on the laptop rather than the phone. Typos galore #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:53:32 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @frankblues I used to think about FT TT, though with its challenges and limits, I am not sure it is really a dream any longer #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:54:25 |
| @frankblues | @JeffreyKeefer Better working conditions for adjuncts. Feeling valued and appreciated by the institution itself. Better pay. #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:54:31 |
| @VCVaile | but (A4) I have plans to streamline online networks…integrate varied education & local ones #adjunctchat | 6/10/2014 16:54:33 |
| @JeffreyKeefer | @Comprof1 Thanks! #AdjunctChat | 6/10/2014 16:54:43 |
