George Mason University reviews

None other than being an adjunct carries no benefits. However that is the nature of adjunct work. Also as an adjunct you get moved around from class to class. But again not unique to GMU but to adjunct lie.

There is not a strong sense of community on campus (compared to other mid-size midwestern universities I have worked at) because it is so close to DC faculty/students are involved with many other outside commitments. It is not that people are unfriendly or unpleasant, but if you are accustom to having a strong sense of community with those you work and study with this campus environment is slightly different. Part of this may also be because the university is transitioning from a "commuter school" to a full-fledged "traditional" college campus. In addition, because they are transitioning from a "commuter" to "traditional" campus some of the internal organizational structures are lacking. For example, there is no central graduate college to handle all graduate student needs across departments. This burdens the departments of study to devise their own messy processes and procedures to handle graduate issues - "traditional" universities have a central organizing body that streamlines this process.
