University President Takes $90K Pay Cut to Boost Wages of Low-Income Employees
MATR Sponsor (view all)
His time may be short, but Kentucky State University interim president Raymond Burse is making his term memorable. Recently, Burse and the school’s Board of Regents approved a measure to move $90,000 of his salary to inflate the wages of the university’s minimum wage workforce – a move that will increase hourly wages to $10.25 per hour.
Burse, the University’s former president from 1982 to 1989, recently came back to KSU as a temporary replacement for now-retired president Mary Evans Sias. Between his stints as KSU president, Burse spent 17 years with General Electric before retiring in 2012.
