CAMPUS AND AREA University Daily Kansan, April 4, 1984 Page 7 Pay increase beats merit pay in Classified Senate priorities By GRETCHEN DAY Staff Reporter The KU Classified Senate last night decided that although it still wanted merit pay, it would not be willing to sacrifice a 5 percent cost-of-living increase in order to get it. Joe Collins, Classified Senate president, said that the Kansas Legislature was discussing several options for funding living increases and a meriti-pay plan. The Legislature could offer, for example, a 5 percent cost-of-living increase and a 2 percent merit-pay plan, he said, or a 4.5 percent cost-of-living increase and 2.5 percent merit pay. The Kansas Senate is now working on a bill that would allocate money for classified employees' salaries. The House earlier supported a 5 percent cost-of-living increase and a 2.2 percent merit-pay system. Collins said that a plan that would finance merit pay at less than 2.5 percent would not be adequate to meet the needs of employees and above average employees. The merit-pay plan, which was established in 1980, has never been fully financed and has not been financed at all for three years, he said. The Classified Senate also voted to support a merit-pay plan that would give preferential treatment to employees who had been at KU for three years. "We have run a successful campaign. People did indeed respond." In other matters, Marvin Harder, secretary of the state Department of Administration and a member of the state Health Insurance Commission, said that the new health insurance contracts would include dental coverage for the first time. Politics continued from p. 1 Jackson said he was not going to change his campaign: "We are going to continue to campaign among the poor . . . for the poor." MONDALE SCORED BIGGEST among Jewish and union voters who constitute two of the biggest components of the New York vote. But he also scored well in the rural areas of the state and was doing well in the suburbs — normally Hart territory. The results were apparent early in New York, with NBC calling Mondale the likely winner by a wide margin two hours before the polls closed at 9 p.m. EST. Network polls of voters leaving the balloting showed a heavy preference for the former vice president, especially among the Jewish and labor blocs. Get Something Going! Make the cash flow.
