Faculty raises 'most worrisome' budget issue for Iowa State - Editorial Board, the Gazette

After deep funding cuts last year left most Iowa State University faculty and administrators without pay raises, new ISU President Wendy Wintersteen said Monday she hopes to avoid a repeat this year — despite yet another state funding take back. Doing so is imperative as ISU, like the University of Iowa, copes with declining state support while continuing to compete nationally for top scholars and students. “This is probably the most worrisome budget issue that we have in front of us,” Wintersteen told The Gazette’s editorial board Monday. http://www.thegazette.com/subject/news/education/faculty-raises-most-worrisome-budget-issue-for-iowa-state-20180507
