This is becoming the new norm in academia (a majority of professors are not tenure-track).
Hah, that's hilarious. Why even bother advertising for the position?

I have to wonder why academics in non-STEM disciplines put up with this shit. If the academic job market is so shitty, they should just work elsewhere. I understand that non-academic jobs in obscure non-STEM disciplines are not always in as good supply, but nearly any job has got to be better than the wage slavery that modern day lecturers face. In STEM grad programs, PhD student stipends pay better than that.
