Dean Jones says:

"Good!  We have an agreement!

Here is the new contract package:

**TWO guaranteed trips to conferences each year for two years

**$1,000 for software to analyze data

**$10,210 for hardware (i.e., special computer processor and other equipment)

**A nine-month salary at the 57th percentile

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

**Three-day a week teaching schedule during the regular academic year.

Welcome to our university!"

Critique:

This was an OK settlement.  On the one hand, you got a better-than-average salary and you got some modest improvements in your teaching schedule, travel, and hardware budget compared to the Dean's initial offers.  On the other hand, teaching three summer sessions will severely cut into your research program.  Feel free to try again to see if you can get better outcomes...
