“Robert Balla, an adjunct professor of English at Stark State College, in North Canton, Ohio received a letter in which he was told that ‘in order to avoid penalties under the Affordable Care Act…employees with part-time or adjunct status will not be assigned more than an average of 29 hours per week.’ He told the Journal that the move cut his $40,000 salary by about $2,000 and that he cannot afford health insurance. ‘I think it goes against the spirit of the [health-care] law,’ Mr. Balla said. ‘In education, we’re working for the public good, we are public employees at a public institution; we should be the first ones to uphold the law, to set the example.'”
