Everyone gets paid more and more each year. It is called &quot;inflation.&quot; We pay more and more for hamburgers each year and this is justified because its produced better hamburger-eaters!?! Again, you have these thoughts about education that don&#39;t project well if you take them to any other arena.<br>
<br>You write: &quot;Education improves because classrooms are smaller, teachers have 
resources to do their jobs, the teachers are dedicated to the progress 
of the students, and the concerns and issues facing teachers are 
addressed.&quot;<br><br>Wait a minute. Is your &quot;solution&quot; to lower classroom size? Is the idea that if we cut salaries 5% and pay no one more than 70,000 that we be able to re-coup enough savings so that we get down to a classroom size where it will matter, say, 20 students?<br>
<br>For one thing, class room sizes is not getting smaller, it is getting larger. And cutting salaries isn&#39;t going to help you. Sure you can get a bunch of people to teach classes to 20 students but it would be a whole lot more efficient to just get one gal to teach 250 students; get a few TAs to do the grading. Do the math: your solution is NOT going to save money in the long run. If it were that easy, someone would have already thought to that &quot;solution.&quot;<br>
<br>You need to have a little more faith and trust that the folks in higher ed are in it for the right reasons and that nonetheless it is a competitive market. People are payed what they are paid because that is the going rate. Folks on the Palouse are already underpaid relative to their colleagues at peer institutions. And believe it or not the administrations of both universities are filled with intelligent people, folks who are also interested in education in the same way that the K-12 teachers you love so dearly are interested in education, people who are busting their humps trying to figure out how to deal with this situation.<br>

<div>Paying professors more certainly hasn&#39;t helped the quality of education, has it? Nor does paying a professor more money make them any smarter or better.  So why not put the money where it would be most effective. But again, it isn&#39;t just overpaid professors, it is also administrators that misspend public funds including overpaying themselves.</div>

&gt; It&#39;s true that some philosophical texts have been available for as long as <br>&gt; dozens of centuries. Many of those texts are readily available. Various texts <br>&gt; from different authors have content specific, if not unique, to that text
 and <br>&gt; its distinct author. A particular text from a particular author may not be <br>&gt; represented by any other author&#39;s text, so one may have to have that specific <br>&gt; text to understand what that particular author thought and wrote on that <br>
&gt; subject at that time. So, if one wishes to read specific writings associated <br>&gt; with participants in the annual philosophy conference on the <span>Palouse</span>, one <br>&gt; needs these volumes, not just general search access to the Internet or a local <br>
&gt; library card.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; On the other hand, sometimes information that has been around for centuries, <br>&gt; and is available if one looks for it, can be repackaged in ways attractive to <br>&gt; professors and expensive for students, to the distinct benefit of publishers <br>
&gt; and their authors. For example, James Stewart is a Canadian math professor and <br>&gt; author of many books, most notably a series of
 calculus books that have earned <br>&gt; him quite a bit of money. He chose to invest a large amount of it in his <br>&gt; personal residence, which he calls Integral House. Here is a link to a Wall <br>&gt; Street Journal article with a description and images of the residence.<br>

&gt; <br>&gt; Here is a link t<span>o a</span> MAA interview with James Stewart:<br>&gt; <br>&gt; <a href="http://www.maa.org/news/061809stewart.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.maa.org/news/061809stewart.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.maa.org/news/061809stewart.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://www.maa.org/news/061809stewart.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://www.maa.org/news/061809stewart.html</a> <br>
&gt; <br>&gt; I suppose if one is into jealousy, envy, and schadenfreude one might take some <br>&gt; enjoyment from the thought of the Canadian real estate market taking its toll <br>&gt; on his investment, but if he&#39;s not in the market to sell his home any time <br>
&gt; soon, it&#39;s probably a moot point to anyone but the most wicked and cruel.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; Investment diversity remains the recommended strategy, despite his mansion.<br>&gt; <br>&gt; <br>&gt; Ken<br>&gt; <br>&gt; =======================================================<br>
