In another act of deaf-ear politics, the regents have approved a big increase in the pay-scale for administrators.
This will play well in the next budget cycle--with all the belt-tightening in other places in the system, lets fork over extra thousands to non-teaching types.
The chancellor of Madison may get a pay raise as big as my yearly salary! Why can't we hire a few more professors with that money?
[UPDATE] An astute reader has pointed out that the Journal-Sentinal misreported the information on the Madison's chancellor's salary increase: he will only receive $1700 more). The vice chancellor of academic affairs will get over $37,000 though.
Here is the story from the Wisconsin State Journal.
and the original report at the Journal-Sentinal:

In general, I am not opposed to trying to keep up salaries in the UW system (like my own), but this just seems like bad politics once again.
Even worse, when the Journal-Sentinal misreports the amount of increase for Wiley!
