A bit less than half the members voted, with 95% approving the administration’s offer of 5/2/3 % raises. Voting closed at midnight. Sure enough, at 8:00 this morning I got the email below (with my response at the top) telling me that the administration had finally posted a partial salary…

Rumor has it that the raise agreement will be for 3 years, with 5/2/3 % raises. The union will send out a call for members to approve in a few days. First two years across the board, last 3% merit. You can’t call it a COLA raise because actual cost…
Of course not, this is for the football coach:
I’m sure Duck Faculty Athletic Reps Tim Gleason and Josh Gordon will have a complete explanation for Pres Schill’s Intercollegiate Athletics Advisory Committee. 73% of Cristobal’s players graduate within 6 years, 20% of Altman’s do. Many problems with this metric, but why is UO at the bottom? From Jon Wilner’s…
Unsurprising news from Runners World. Thanks to a regular correspondent for forwarding the link. A grand jury has subpoenaed records and contracts dating back to 2012. As part of a criminal investigation, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia has asked for documents detailing the financial relationship between…
Everything important has been done or will be done in secret. Two days of meetings and the only vote is a pro-forma one on some Ed School MS/certificate program. No way this in-person meeting is worth even an epsilon chance of the Omicron, but it will be online if you…
Just kidding, of course he didn’t. But OSU’s General Counsel did, in admirable detail:
On November 21st 2011, 10 years ago, OUS Chancellor George Pernsteiner and Board Chair Matt Donegan came down to UO with their ultimatum demanding Lariviere resign for trying to implement his plan to bring faculty pay to 100% of AAU averages and trying to set up an independent UO Board. Lariviere refused to leave…

Whoops, the real session is on zoom here. It may be a while before the Johnson Hall team screws up the courage to bring its shit raise real dollar salary cut proposals to the table, but meanwhile: UA’s Bargaining Team plans to present a counter on Internal Governance and new…
Ignoring the deans, of course. The search will be run by Isaacson Miller, the same incompetents who brought Rahmat Shoureshi to PSU. The committee in full, from OSU’s search website: Julie Manning, member of the Board of Trustees, committee chair. Patty Bedient, member of the Board of Trustees. Julia Brim-Edwards, member…
They’re going to have to stop calling it the dismal science. Today’s release is at https://www.oregon.gov/das/OEA/Pages/forecastecorev.aspx Given this on top of all the other good news about UO’s out-of-state enrollment, CARES funds, and cost savings from the hiring freeze etc., it will be fun listening to Pres Schill at today’s…
Not sure why or to where. No longer on the Org Chart. Had been expected to replace Brad Shelton.
Carmichael rescued a dysfunctional UOPD – remember the Bowl of Dicks? – and increased police spending by millions in the process: Around the 0 has a press release here. His interim replacement will be Jason Wade, who I’ve heard good things about.
