Unlike tenured professors, adjunct professors still need to perform to keep their jobs. No benefits either, although their children often get faculty tuition rates which can be quite helpful.
My FIL was a full-time h.s. math teacher (recently retired) but has been an adjunct at a couple of local colleges for several years. My wife attended one of the colleges he taught at and got a real good break on tuition.
