Abstract
According to data derived from a community-college survey in the state of Washington, the majority of part-time faculty prefer full-time work. Using a logit regression analysis, the study reported in this paper suggests that typical part-timers enter their part-time teaching situations with the intent of becoming full-time, but gradually become discouraged. Those faculty who prefer their part-time status frequently maintain employment relations with one college for long periods of time. Faculty who persist in part-time employment, but who prefer full-time employment, typically learn to work the system to secure heavier-than-average teaching loads.
