Budget . . .
From Page 1
Before the Legislature tightened the budget, KU had expected a one per cent increase in faculty pay.
The Board of Regents approved all promotions and waived for one year its policies of minimum salary requirements for positions that, that, Chalmers' words, "The unfortunate chance of being up for promotions in a dry year should be denied by being denied a promotion."
cuts. The council suggesten the following steps to the Board of Regents to offset budget cuts: increase salaries; decrease increases; no salary increases for faculty or for classified personnel; security positions going beyond job requirements; employees and their working hours being reduced; vacated positions being left vacant; and supplies being deferred.
Discussion on graduate students' salaries centered on the complaint that assistant instructors did not share in faculty pay increases and that money appropriated to departments for graduate salary increases was channeled off to the senior
Heller said the money came to KU from the Legislature in two cases, one operating expenses. The University then make internal expenses.
He said that for several years until 1989, the University used to use increased amounts of money available to them for senior faculty without insisting they had faculty. There were minimum and maximum salary levels suggested for teaching assistant, but the demands to decide who with the money they had.
But tuition fees kept going up and in 1989 the squeeze really got bad. Heller said. There were no salary increases for the teaching students, so with the higher fees they really were taking a salary cut.
It was then agreed that the teaching assistants would receive $10,000 in increase as the regular faculty of the University would receive. Heller said they allocated money to pay for additional departments and they made it impossible for the departments to get the money from the grad students.
Heller said one of the real problems was "our inability, legally, to remit fees. At some grants get you a bill for fees. But the only thing the University can do in effect is to say, 'We will pay your
fees for you.' '
And with the tremendous amount of money this would take and with the present financial would be impossible, Heller said.
Ronald Calgaard, 1970-71 president of the American Association of University College students, faculty salaries is deplorable. The real effect is on morale and people expectations concerning academic performance. University, he thinks that the prospects for next year will be better. When those prospects are negative, he says, "it's going negatively on morale."
Calgair said he thought the real effect of the cuts would not impact his business, but budget slashes came too late, after many people had already moved to New York.
But he said that unless the situation improved, the 1972-73 fall semester would probably be the turnover of teachers at KU.
Chalmers last week said, "Next year the salaries paid by KU to all faculty members will be among the lowest paid by any state university. How can we expect to hold quality professors or hire new ones with the money left from the Legislature?"
The average faculty compensations (combined salaries and fringe benefits) by rank in the University of Georgia colleges and universities were published in a preliminary report by the American Association of University Professors in the Chronicle of Higher Education.
Institutions of higher education were divided into three categories, the university level, the college level and the junior-level. At each level, the university level, those institutions that offer the doctorate and, in the most recent three years, conferred an annual degree to doctorates in at least three nonrelated disciplines. Those institutions in the college level category grant the bachelors or higher but do not qualify for the university category.
