Nick,

The great thing about your and my job is we can quit. If you don't think you
make enough than quit. I doubt our wounded soldiers can do that.

So again I would rather donate my meager earnings to our troops than to the
"highly underpaid" staff.

Matt

distinction between the administrators and faculty, who have received good
pay raises over the past four years, while classified staff have not. Nearly
20 percent, according to Tom Trail's figures, are under the poverty line.

professors are way behind, but UI staff are even further behind, how much we
don't know because salary figures are available.

the CPI to fund a living wage of $10.75 for all UI classified staff.
