They are overpaid as it is




Klaus,

Since you've made this bold statement of fact, please tell me, without looking on the internet for answers, in your opinion, what is a fair salary for the following:

-an assistant professor in the 6th year of teaching with a Doctorate degree
-international recognition in their field and continued international presence in the field
-multiple years of unpaid service to their university, deparment, college, and community through various committees, recruiting, community initiatives and outreach
-a track record of success in student job placement

Also, what do you think the current starting salary is for an assistant professor with a terminal degree?



How many hours are spent in the classroom by the professors? I read an article that being a college professor was one of the best jobs in the world.

The whole wafb story is crazy. How many people in this thread were at the faculty senate meeting? how many in this thread talked to the people directly involved in the Save LSU campaign.

The person in charge giving the speech at the faculty senate I dont think even mentioned football or coaches salary. Off the record, in one small interview they talk to an english instructor in the hallway before the meeting and got that qoute about coaches salary.

Most of the discussion at the faculty senate was not favorable towards Jindal. Not much if anything was mentioned that actually occurred at the faculty senate meeting. Poor reporting if you ask me.

Many of my professors at LSU tought a single 3-hour course and had only a couple of hours a week that they were available in their offices.
