From the article: "In his farewell, Dr. Lee reported that between 2000 and 2005, MSU had a net loss of 51 people in its professorship ranks and a net increase of 35 instructors."
Can this be correct? Only 51 pros left MSU in 6 years? How many left USM, profs only not staff?
the key phrase is "net loss." those faculty that left compared to those hired.
Ahh, I missed that little word "net". I wonder what USM's "net" lost has been since 2002. We need more info than the list posted on this board for that. I do know the CoST have had a net gain. Their problem now is finding office space and lab space for all the new hires.
