Pay Raise Granted Student Employees

Student dining hall employees will earn a larger salary beginning Oct. 28. The pay raise is proportional to that granted the Cooks and Pastry Cooks Union.

The students would have received a raise even if the Union had not negociated larger salaries, but the exact amount could not be determined until the Union rates had been settled.

The pay increase, affecting over 360 students, is in line with a general raise granted to all student employees. Because of the Union dispute, the new pay scale for dining hall employees was not ready in time to coincide with the student porter raise last summer.

Counter workers will now earn 95 cents an hour, an increase of 10 cents, while kitchen workers will earn $1.04 and Harkness grill workers $1.30.
