259 votes? That’s barely above 10% of the UA constituency, no? Voting was exceedingly simple, I feel disappointed by the turn-out.

You are right, I should have looked up the exact number of folks in the bargaining unit. I based the 259 votes cast on 2000, because it was the rough number that stuck in my mind.

Sorry, but to quote Julius Caesar or at least some screenwriter for HBO’s Rome series, “arithmetic has no mercy”. You will be missed.

The letter that UoMatters links to says 250-9. That’s 259 in my math class.

UO compensation ranks high. The absence of expensive engineering and medical profs makes UO’s overall numbers seem lower than they really are.
