Bakersfield, California, United States Kern Community College Full time


Journalism Instructor Rising Scholars Program - Part Time Adjunct Pool


Kern Community College District

Salary: $60.00 Hourly

Job Type:

Job Number: FY

Location: Bakersfield, CA

Department: Communication

Basic Function
Please Note: Kern Community College District accepts applications for part-time, hourly faculty pools on a continuous basis. This allows the division to contact qualified applicants immediately, if a need arises without having to wait for a period of time to advertise. If there is an interest and/or need within the specific department, applicants who meet the minimum requirements will be contacted by respective department supervisors, deans and/or division chairs. Applications submitted will remain active for up to two years.

Kern Community College District is soliciting applications for part-time, hourly adjunct instructors. The starting salary range is $60.00/hour; Hourly rate may vary based on type of assignment and the Lecture Hour Equivalent (LHE) formula. For more information, refer to the CCA collective bargaining agreement or your college HR office.

Representative Duties
The successful applicant for the position will provide instruction in Media and Society and Beginning Reporting. Applicants should have professional experience in reporting, editing, and newspaper production and be prepared to participate in course assessments. All course assignments will be for face-to-face, in-class instruction. No online courses will be assigned.

The successful applicant will serve students in our Rising Scholars program (RSP) previously known as the Inmate Scholars Program (ISP), at five California Department of Correction and Rehabilitation (CDCR) prisons. Faculty are usually assigned to multiple sites to teach classes each semester. Two prison sites are in Corcoran, two sites in Delano, and one additional prison is in Wasco. Faculty commute up and down the valley to reach students currently incarcerated. It is best to think of each of the prisons as a satellite campus of BC and faculty are assigned classes at the different satellites based on students' needs.

Faculty teaching assignments start after 3pm and end around 9pm depending on the scheduled start time. Unlike other traditional and non-traditional teaching assignments, faculty must be cleared by CDCR through a background check and properly trained through both CDCR and BC to teach for RSP. There are rules, regulations, and codes of conduct that instructors must be conscious of and always abide by while on site and when interacting with students and CDCR staff. Although it might sound intimidating, our RSP students are some of the most dedicated, hardworking, and determined students you will ever meet. This position is a wonderful opportunity to participate in a growing area of higher education taking place in California and beyond. Feel free to visit BC's RSP page for some general information about the program ).
