This might help others make decisions on where to work. I've been told the following,

IPA =22 contact hours

Princess Nur University =30

Bell=30

Do correct me if I'm wrong.

I would not teach over 20 contact hours under any situation. I have never been asked to teach in excess of 20 hours, and for the last 15 years or so, I have never taught more than 15 hours. They could not pay me enough to exceed 20 hours, especially if those hours include composition classes.

30 contact hours is insane... and completely unacceptable if it is supposedly a "university."

Your quotation marks say it all.

At a company that pays better than the universities, I teach 24 short contact hours in a 26-hour work week. In addition, every fourth Wednesday is an off day.

Less than 50 minutes.

I bet it is one of those hours that doesn't have 60 minutes... which is actually almost all contact hours at university level, isn't it? The places that I've taught at ranged from 45-55 minutes.

I'm at a company, as I mentioned. The contact hours that I personally come into contact with are 40 and 45 mins.
