Randy Phillis got a letter published in the Globe today. It's a good letter. In a year where faculty have effectively had their pay cut by thousands of dollars, it's galling that the president would get a $73k salary increase -- an increase nearly equal to the median faculty annual salary. We haven't had a cost-of-living increase that kept pace with inflation for years, we took a zero last year, have gotten zero this year, and they changed the split for our health-insurance, robbing us of thousands of dollars. Sad.
