Employee salary increase aims to tackle 'brain drain'

Raises will be awarded across the board and on terms of merit

Eligible UA employees will receive raises on the basis of merit in addition to an across-the-board cost of living adjustment in April, officials said.

The increases come from a bill approved last spring by the Arizona House of Representatives that gives state employees 5 percent salary increases for the next two years - a substantial increase from the 2 percent raise given in recent years.

Wildcat should not have wasted ink

I am compelled to write about the Aug. 28 article about the human brandings at this place called the Meet Rack on Drachman. That the Daily Wildcat wastes ink and paper on stories about trashy dive bars that brand their equally trashy clientele is a profound disappointment to alumni like myself.
