Potential merge edit

It seems strange that there are the articles Adjunct professor and Professors in the United States#Adjunct professor, in addition to this one. The duplication and rewrite tags also suggest that I am not the only one with this belief. A substantial portion of all three articles/sections are unsourced and can easily be combined into one article. Either there should be a standalone expanded general article (after adding sources that the current version sorely lacks) or the general version can be made into a disambiguation / meta article for the individual articles (with a link to the United States article). It is also interesting to note that this article has no mention of any country besides the United States. — MarkH21 (talk) 09:12, 27 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

The non-tenure-track professors at colleges and universities in Canada are usually referred to as "sessionals". If this article is supposed to be about North America, there should be regard for the differing terms. Hawthornleaf (talk) 18:51, 20 January 2020 (UTC) User:HawthornleafReply

Indeed, this article is describing adjunct professors in the United States and definitely not in "North America." It only muddies the distinction that is already explained correctly in the world-wide article, and it ought to be merged or simply deleted. 2607:FEA8:129F:3100:0:0:0:3462 (talk) 01:13, 29 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

The content of this article seems very skewed towards pay controversies and situations for Adjunct professors.
