Great!  Just to review, these are the terms we agreed to: 

**ONE guaranteed trip to a conference each year for two years

**$1,200 for software to analyze data

**$12,000 for hardware (i.e., special computer processor and other equipment)

**A nine-month salary at the 64th percentile

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

**Three-day a week teaching schedule.

Welcome to our university!"

 

Critique:

This was a pretty good deal for you, compensation-wise.  You got a high starting salary for a fresh Ph.D. and you increased your software and hardware budgets compared to the initial offers.  However, you are saddled with a high teaching load.  Try again to see if you can get an even better agreement.
