Dean Jones says:

"Here is the new contract package that you agreed upon:

**TWO guaranteed trips to a conference each year for two years

**$1,000 for software to analyze data

**$10,000 for hardware (i.e., special computer processor and other equipment)

**A nine-month salary at the 79th percentile

**Required to teach three summer sessions, none of which count toward your teaching load

**Three-day a week teaching schedule with extra-large classes.

**You will list the new university as your "co-affiliation" on your current projects and list the new university as your sole affiliation on projects that you start here.

**I'll agree to provide TWO paid graduate research assistants for the next TWO years, and you'll agree to supervise THREE independent-study-type undergraduate research projects during the next two years."

Critique:  This is a pretty good settlement.  You couldn't have gotten much better in terms of salary.  However, you will have a pretty heavy teaching load.  Click here to play again; perhaps you can get a better deal next time!
