Reply to comment by pigeonsmasher in New School makes “final offer” to striking part-time faculty in New York City by DrogDrill

Yea that seems like a raw deal for part timers. Aren’t full timers required to do research or publish?

All in, even if each student pays $3K per class at 20 students a class. Paying faculty somewhere between $3.5K to $10K is very light. Teachers might be better off creating their schools and teach a class of 10 people online or to the students home.

This is insane.

Right, the research and publishing is where the rest of that money is “earned.” For however valuable that is.

I posted a detailed breakdown above. Full time professors at CUNY are not living high on the hog believe me. We don't have coaches or a big time law or medical school, so the "professors" that make over $150k a year are few and far between. This is all publicly available if you do a search and as of this moment our absolute cap on the highest paid full professor with 20+ years at CUNY is $141,858. That does not include extra pay for being the chair of a department or distinguished professor or anything. For that add about $25,000 more. So if everyone is upset about high pay in NYC, I don't think looking at professors is where we should be looking...

Edit - by the way The New School is a private school NOT a CUNY school.
