How to get a teaching position at a community college?
swhertzberg asked:
I have a BA in Anthropology and I am finishing my MA in Human Sexuality Studies. I am very very interested in teaching at a JC or community college. I know right off the bat I am going to have difficulty getting equivalency status granted to teach Anthropology. However, that aside, are there any tips to securing a teaching position when I will be competing with MA’s and PhD’s in Anthro?

I am interested in the Los Rios Community College district in Sacramento, CA and will be moving up there after I get married next summer. I know that being a part of the community is key to the community college atmosphere and experience, and I will be trying to do that in whatever way possible.
Any other tips or ideas on how to get a teaching position at a JC?
