Ask President McCormick and Old Queens: Got Ethics?
The McCormick Administration:
* Ignored Trenton’s 4% cap on tuition and fees by adding a new “capital improvement fee” that raised student fees 12.5%
* Broke the unions’ 2009 concession agreements. Froze salaries for unionized workers, but found money for raises and promotions for executives and top managers
* Exclude academically-qualified, undocumented students who graduated from New Jersey high schools by charging out-of-state tuition
* Eliminated the L bus service after students had selected classes and signed leases in Highland Park
* Won’t open the books for students, staff and faculty to have real input on the RU budget. Transparency should be priority.
We say it’s unethical.
