Vazquez Sat, 13 Dec 2008 16:32:37 +0000 http://doublebassblog.org/?p=720#comment-8790 Hi, what do you think of this type of situation? I have been an adjunct for 4 years and right at the very beginning I was given a piano major because the full-time professor had no room in his schedule. He has grown from no sight-reading to playing Debussy's Children's Corner next semester in his senior recital. Three semesters ago I was asked again to take on a lot more piano majors (no piano performance) for the same reasons. Now the artist-in-residence is having trouble making load and is taking 3 of the piano majors I have had for 3 semesters. With certain comments and body language they have also made me feel like I am not good enough to teach piano majors. I was told it is common practice. I think it's unethical. What is your take? Or anybody else? Hi,
