Not surprised at all, here at Penn State our CFO is the head of our task force on sexual violence and the faculty health plan (which they are doing there best to scuttle). Of course, he doesn't not deal directly with students but members of the administration and the Board of Trustees. Dr Gray just received a 13% pay raise for his managing of Penn State's 3.14 billion Long term investment fund, which grew by 144 million last year. And on top of that, we grad students are fighting against a 21% health care raise last year, another 30% increase this year while the cost to the university would be less than a million a year to keep our health care benefits the same. The problem? Damn Obamacare and ACA taxes. Smoke and mirrors.

Masko College of Communications Penn State University State College, Pa 16801 “There are deeper strata of truth in cinema, and there is such a thing as poetic, ecstatic truth. It is mysterious and elusive, and can be reached only through fabrication and imagination and stylization.” -Werner Herzog, “LESSONS OF DARKNESS” _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
