Pros

I was always able to get overtime. If a teacher wanted something copied, we gave it to director. If s/he approved it, the office staff made the copies. Ty his was if a copyright law was broken, the teacher didn,t break the law.

Cons

ALCC went out of business very suddenly. One day students and teachers went there for class, but there was a sign announcing that classes had been cancelled. Permanently. I haven't heard about them reopening.

none, zero, nothing, not a bit

Cons

Overt and implied threats of termination at every corner; Feeling complicit in stealing underprepared students' money; Writing progress reports at three week intervals that are largely ignored by students and administrators; Being "watched" by administrators via Blackboard activity; Students have impression that because they are paying for courses, they won't need to attend classes.
