pay raises in the coming year because of the recession.
Purdue announced yesterday that its budget for the coming fiscal year
beginning in July won’t include any salary increases. However, a school
statement said that faculty members who are promoted will receive those
scheduled salary increases.
University President France Cordova said the school must work “harder and

cost-saving measures, including the elimination of merit bonuses.
