    As far as I can tell this is real. I mean this job is listed on a real UCLA page. Amazing.https://twitter.com/DrBrookeNewman/status/1504974567361687554 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Brooke Newman @DrBrookeNewman
    Is this a joke?? “The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at UCLA seeks applications for an Assistant Adjunct Professor on a without salary basis. Applicants must understand there will be no compensation for this position.” https://recruit.apo.ucla.edu/JPF04991

        Except the ad very clearly says it is a adjunct teaching position, not a research position.

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        What's sad is that it will be worth it to someone independently wealthy to take this job just to bolster their credentials. And it may pay off in some way. Someone who is poor and needs the paycheck can't compete.

        Academia, like journalism, will become increasingly closed off to the working class or even middle class. It's going to lead to a dark future.

        The closest thing to an innocent explanation I can think of is that they already have someone coming - on sabbatical from an institution that is paying their salary for example - and need to post the opening for regulatory reasons. But there are so many worse possibilities.
