Question: Should NIC Employees Get 6% Raises

Item: NIC board considers 6 percent salary increase: Pay about 20 percent below market for faculty/Meghann Cuniff, Spokesman-Review

More Info: The Legislature gave the college enough to cover 40 percent of a state-suggested 5 percent increase; the rest will come from the college's general fund, which the administration hopes to fatten by increasing NIC's share of property taxes by 3 percent, the maximum allowed by state law, Propst said.

Question: Too much? Not enough? Just right?
