Nick:
Though I have been a member of the Society a few months, I only joined this "group" this morning as I am trying to get my profile, etc. set up.
Regarding your question...I think I see your point. I am teaching now (and have been the past 4 years) as an adjunct at a college while I "up" my degree as other colleges have expressed interest. In my own case, it is due to having a strong "industry" (their word) background as well as a "serious" (concert music) background. I too am open to ideas.
I know that may not help you much, but I am looking forward to more discussion on this.
Thank you for your time.
Ric Flauding.
