[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It's not about privilege. It's a benefit/perk of the low paying jobs in academia to get a tuition break for your own kids. Most profs/staff would be just as happy if the tuition break carries over to other schools (and it does at some universities). They want the tuition break that they have been told is a perk of lower paying employment for years. Same with staff----most staff in academia would get paid more outside academia. [/quote] Everyone who makes the same salary as an academic, but who is not an academic, has just as a good a reason to have that job as the academics do. There is no reason to privilege academics just because they took a low-paying job over anyone else who took an equally low-paying job. [/quote] Why can’t my kid get your employee benefits? Do you complain that military get free healthcare? Different jobs have different benefits. [/quote]
