Gotta love that "compensation."  Who in their right mind would do this when you can earn the same money simply teaching in the summer?  As usual USM wants to double, triple, or quadruple someone's workload with a slap on the back as compensation.  Enough of this degrading plantation mentality!

That is not an uncommon type compensation package, I assure you ... for junior colleges. (I have seen self-study directors assigned without compensation, BTW, under the "all other duties as may be assigned" contract clause.) My prediction is that USM is going to have some very "interesting" experiences getting its QEP approved.
