Don’t Believe the Administration’s Scare Tactics about Deficits

February 16, 2023

Dear colleague, Tomorrow, President Holloway will give his budget address to the University Senate. With Rutgers prospering during the pandemic and the administration’s unrestricted reserves climbing to a new high of $818.6 million, you’d expect President Holloway to be cheerful about our university’s financial health.

Dear colleague, Welcome back to another semester. We hope you got some rest, because we have a fight ahead of us. We’re sure management’s insulting salary offer is fresh in your mind. After waiting more than half a year, we learned that the administration thinks we deserve a 5 percent salary CUT once inflation is taken into account. Nothing …
