Employees</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Mo,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>While I agree that laying off the entire administration won't solve a
thing, it is the administration that is responsible, and should bear the
biggest burden of the cuts.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>For instance, draw a line in the sand, say $100,000.00 in salary and
bonuses. Everything above that should be up for grabs, spread across the board
of those making 100k or more.</DIV>
<DIV>Now, some folks will say, then those making more than 100k will
leave and go elsewhere. WHERE? Those jobs aren't out there and if they can
find them, more power to them. And real leaders LEAD,</DIV>
<DIV>so where are the university 'leaders" that are stepping up to the
plate and saying: "Times are rough, so instead of making 350.000 this year,
pay me 200k." ?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Has anyone got a list of the U of I employees that with salary and
bonuses make more than 100k? Amy be that number has to even drop down to 80k a
year. OK, who can't live </DIV>
<DIV>comfortably in Moscow on 80k a year?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>And now that things are getting tight, the administration, those poor
folks making 100k or 80k plus, are going to have to make very
tough cuts of NON ESSENTIAL things that go on at the University, </DIV>
<DIV>starting with the NCAA sports programs. Now, when everyone so
inclined starts to complain about there being no football, baseball,
basketball etc, advise them to ask the legislature to give</DIV>
<DIV>more money for sports programs rather than academics. And yes, that
doesn't just hold for the college/university level but also for the grad and
high schools. More important that little Jimmy or</DIV>
<DIV>Janie can spell FOOTBALL than play it. Face it, non essentials have
to be cut, and unfortunately, sports has to go before academics.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Now, we look at other governments and agencies and ask, IS THIS NEEDED? A
great example of total irresponsible government waste is the new chain just
installed on the western side of the federal parking lot</DIV>
<DIV>on Jefferson. Five short poles, installed by a contractor,
connected by waist high chains. FOR WHAT? </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>And then there is the city council. $500 a head for a kumbaya
session paid to an out of state contractor to do what, make sure they get
along? The reason I voted for the folks I voted for was to see</DIV>
<DIV>CHANGE, I don't want them to get along! IF that session was so
VITAL to the council members, would THEY have paid for it out of their own
pockets? IF the answer is yes, well why didn't they? </DIV>
<DIV>And how about when we do spend, we have the local government spend it
locally rather than spending it on out of Moscow, out of State contractors
and employees? </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>

been wanting to ask folks this question for a LONG time....How would you
solve the financial problems at UI? You all are great at criticizing
and griping about the decisions that are being made, but I have yet to hear
from any one of you a better way. Yes, it sucks that people are going
to be required to take furloughs, yes it sucks that programs are being
merged and so on and so on and so on. But guess what the economy is in
the shits, the state is taking money away from everything including higher
ed, and the university has to do something. <SPAN
