It depends on the school. I know people who get paid $1000 per semester hour... $3000 a semester per course taught. It ain't much. Tenure or bust....
I made $2800 for one class that lasted 12 weeks.
around 310,000 a year
About 3200 for a masters level

"Adjunct" sounds nicer. That sounds somewhat facetious, but it's essentially true: Adjunct professors are typically employed on a temporary, part-time basis, so effectively they're the same thing, it's just a matter of what the school chooses to call them. (One reason for using the title is that isn't not as negative-sounding... many adjunct professors hold full time jobs during the day, and teach night classes in specialized topics that the regular faculty isn't really qualified to teach.)
Most college professors are paid a salary, not by the hour. And the rate of pay depends on their tenure and their education level. It also varies greatly from a small community college up to a prestigous university.
College professors are not "government aided" in any way. They earn an income from the college where they teach and a large of percentage of the college income is from tuition. I have taught adjunct college classes and not only did I NOT receive help from the government, but I had to work myself through college to get the education to teach.

Within the school systems, generally the administrators are the highest paid. Otherwise, professors can make a lot of money depending on the school and the subject.
Because they're lazy and love to sit back and get paid for nothing. I think it should be illegal for Universities to charge students when professors don't even bother teaching.
