No raises for Tech docs in Amarillo

A story appeared in Saturday's Globe-News on pending raises for Texas Tech faculty.

"Faculty and staff for almost all Texas Tech institutions will receive up to 6 percent more in pay under a budget approved by the system's governing board Friday," the story by the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal's Elliott Blackburn stated.

However, I ran into Tech School of Medicine Regional Dean Richard Jordan at a meeting early Monday morning and he said faculty at the Tech Health Sciences Center in Amarillo will not be received raises this year.

Things are looking pretty tight this year, he made it seem like.
