Dean Jones says:
Sorry, but university policy prohibits having "graduate student graders."
HOWEVER, we could provide you with a graduate research assistant (RA) to facilitate your research projects.
Here is the contract package I'd like to offer you:
**TWO guaranteed trips to a conference each year for two years
**One graduate research assistant for one year.
**$2,000 for software to analyze data
**$12,000 for hardware (i.e., special computer processor and other equipment)
**A nine-month salary at the 25th percentile
**Required to teach two summer sessions, none of which count toward your teaching load
**Three-day-a-week teaching schedule.
Your response:
1. I accept your generous offer.
2. That still doesn't meet my needs.
