Comments on: Emory Students Want Their Leaders To Lead By Example http://www.decaturmetro.com/2009/02/25/emory-students-want-their-leaders-to-lead-by-example/ Decatur Georgia News, Events, Atlanta News Thu, 18 Sep 2014 04:03:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=4.0 By: Dresden http://www.decaturmetro.com/2009/02/25/emory-students-want-their-leaders-to-lead-by-example/#comment-6796 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 16:23:11 +0000 http://www.decaturmetro.com/?p=20705#comment-6796 That’s right. I think the article stated that a pay cut for them would be a drop in the bucket, as far as the university budget goes, but SAACJack’s comment about morale boosting is on the money, so to speak.

And I don’t think taxing non-profit endowments is such a good idea.

I know it’s not apples to apples, to compare our value to Emory to that of the leaders, but it just kills morale and then the resentment goes viral.

Someone netting $30K a month (that is month…not year) taking a symbolic 1 or 2% cut could probably afford it easily. If Emory starts laying off/furloughing folks who make that much PER YEAR, well I think it will be very bad PR for Emory and their Campaign to raise funds if it appears that those at the top aren’t “sharing the pain”. Mosquito bite pain to them, but we are talking symbolic here.
