because of its psychological effect
upon the morale of all staff members, and its logical limitations upon the University to enlist the services of outstanding teachers when
recruiting new faculty members.

hoped some day to achieve. Now
that goal Is gone and men will realize that legardless of how hard
they may work or what eminence
they may attain, there is no salary
reward above $5,000. This Is a meager maximum for a profession requiring some 20 or more years of
preparation and a long apprenticeship.
"NO Fl'Tl KIC OFFERED"
"This decision will cause young
men of genius to decline invitations to join our faculty because it
will be common knowledge that
there is no future advancement to
be found in Kentucky comparable
to that in other states.
"Even if sdYne brilliant young
teachers accept our offer, as soon
as they prove themselves and demonstrate their worth they will be
lost to Kentucky, and take their
harvest of prestige to the better
kets of greater universities, and
our state will be the victim of a
penny-wispound foolish economy.
"This will make the University
of Kentucky a training school for
other universities.

great universities of other states.
"It prefaces a chapter in the history of higher education of which

as inertly an organization to protect the populace from hilling bombs.

that is, if she's
