I was told by a fully tenured professir in NY State Full Time professors at public universities (incl. CC) are paid almost double of what private institutions pay & they get great benefits...on the other hand, wanna laugh? In NYS to be a HS teacher you have to have a MS degree but not in college. Minimal requirement is a BA/BS!
I doubt funding is the issue because where they make up for low tuition by having enrolling like 20K of students at a time. Not to mention stipents from the state.
I think CC depends a great deal on adjuncts & these people already have FT jobs elsewhere, they're an entirely different breed. Stick to classes taught by FT professors & you might see a difference.
