...and the road scholars (sessionals) stand to gain nothing. 

Nope and the students are the ones who lose the most from this.

Yes, which raises the question, is education about the student or is it about them? WTF?

Oh they're all for the education. (sarcasm) A couple of my teachers told us we have to teach ourselves and keep up with their lesson plan until the strike ends.

I hate greed.

I don't mind it. I do mind when it gets in my way.

For what it's worth, the post-secondary system has some serious funding formula problems.

My son felt the same way just like Bill Gates did. My son said to h*ll with that, he's now building his second high rise building in Seattle.

I hate greed.

Me too... but who's greed is it, the Professors (who may not have had a raise in years) or the University?

Without knowing the situation I would guess it's the uni being greedy, not the professors who are standing up for their workers rights.

As I see it, you paid for a service. If you don't receive it, demand a refund. I know a couple people who got one due to the prof quitting.

The professors are asking for huge raises and claim it's about "the future of" the university (which I find dubious) and the university offered them smaller raises and are claiming that they don't enough money to give them the huge raises.
I hate both sides. They should find some way of dealing with it that doesn't punish the students.

I'm going to be frank about a couple of things, though. Even if they received the raises they wanted, they would be quite a bit behind the national average. The fear for a university is that it makes it difficult to attract top-notch faculty, and by extension, conduct competitive research.

A bit off topic, but if I were a classroom teacher in NB, I'd want a huge raise, too. School staff in your province make almost 30% less than the national average. That isn't greed--it's fighting for equity.

Frankly, I have trouble understanding the problem. I am well below the poverty line and can't understand why a raise in salary that is already a hundred thousand dollars more a year than I have ever made in my life is somehow worth not providing a service that students (many poor like me) are putting themselves into heaps of debt to be able to pay for. I don't give a crap if the two factions argue about it amongst themselves, but I don't understand why the students are being punished.

I really hate this hair though
My legs, which I shaved yesterday, is to the length that ladies normally shave. I need estrogen and maybe laser on them too.

And I got sir'ed at lunch. That's never happened before. Umm, hello, boobs? I know they're fake, but who can tell?

Felt really uncomfortable for the first half of the day. It's probably a mental issue since several tests didn't show why my body keeps doing that. Nothing serious, probably psychosomatic. I'll spare you what i mean exactly, but it didn't make the long walk more pleasant, although i still enjoyed it.
