While most NTTs were away on Spring Break the Loyola Administration, for the first time in TWENTY-ONE months, gave us their economic proposals. The proposals are an insult to the importance of our work, and showed no respect for the contribution contingent faculty make to the life of the University.
How far apart are they from our proposals?
