Ray Unger: Pay part-time faculty more, full-timers less

Dear Editor: The letter writer who thinks that if part-time faculty at Madison College and UW are paid substantially less than full-time faculty, they can simply apply to become full time, I have two comments. First, it’s extremely difficult to get one of those full-time teaching positions because those position come with generous pay packages. Second, many of those part-timers are women, so if women do the same job as men, shouldn’t they get equal pay?
