Tough Times for Some

Pennsylvania state university presidents are all getting raises. Who deserves our tax dollars more?

    "But even with those salary bumps, their pay still lags about 20 percent behind the median for presidents of comparable state universities nationally, a system spokesman said."

  2. We did and were not impressed.

    No doubt they need salary arbitration.

    Poor things should unionize... by secret ballot, of course.

  3. Dishonest Dave has pulled out one of the more tired Lying Lib tricks here. That being the basing of one groups demands on the comparing of what compensation “others” get in education, thereby perpetuating this extortion farce. Once the PA salaries are raised, they then in turn will be cited by Higher Edu Libs in other states, “Look what they get!”. This happens regularly at the local school district level as well.

    Of course, this dishonest Lib tactic can be defeated with a simple dose of time-honored Mothers’ Directive for Minding One’s Own Business: “Keep your eyes on your own plate”.

    Lying Libs make for lying teachers and administrators… We need to outlaw teacher unions.

  4. r,
    O Least Learned One..
    What do you think education salaries should be? Minimum wage?

    Oh, right, you're against minimum wage, too.

    If you ever become employed, don't forget to remind your boss to pay you 20% less than other people with the same job.

  6. Dear Unviersity Presidents,

    Thank you for keeping our students minds filled with liberal thoughs. As a token of my appreciation, please accept this payraise.

    Sincerely

  7. Right, S. These are the same overpaid executives who brainwash kids with Liberalism while failing to properly educate them for the real/ professional world.
    And they believe that lowering the drinking age on college campuses will somehow magically reduce on campus alcohol abuse.
    Oh, and they also leave our kids vulnerable unarmed sitting ducks for shooting rampages thanks to their Liberal campus gun bans.
    And they think they should get a raise for all that misguided backwards Liberalism abuse of Higher Education. They should be fired and brought up on charges of dereliction of duty, risking a catastrophe and wasting tax dollars.
    We need to remove some of the “Lib” from Liberal Arts and return to actually educating students.

    Don't forget about the speech codes that these overpaid University administrators enforce.

    Keep your eyes on your own plate is a great line!

    If the University libs think they are underpaid in PA why don't they go where the pay is better? Better yet, under Obama why dont we have a law that mandates the same pay for everyone, regradless of industry, skill or hard work?

    Utopia is almost here, and I think the USA will be a great nation under the North Korean economic model, and Obama can be Dear Leader.
