Called. He said there is "a lot of misinformation." I asked is it unpaid adjunct labor. He said "absolutely not." I asked is it paid. He said no. I asked does it involve teaching/advising students. He said yes + that I should contact uni. PR (rae.goldsmith@siu.edu) then hung up.

If I were an Alumni, I'd be so pissed. Basically telegraphing to current students, these are your job prospects.

Who are they looking for?
What are the responsibilities and duties?
How many work-hours per week?
What salary?
What bonuses?

You know... a basic job-description.
