<p>My older d’s school had NO adjuncts and NO TAs. My younger one’s school had a few adjuncts who were former Congresspeople or newspeople or worked in the business world or diplomatic community.</p>
<p>There are other choices out there. </p>
<p>(P.S. The adjuncts are sometimes better than the TAs. For one thing, they can write letters of recommendation, and if they are already working in the field, that can count for something. My younger d. had one from a senior official at the World Bank. It was a big deal.)</p>
