Minneapolis — The president of the University of Minnesota is freezing the salaries of executive level employees -- including his own -- as a-cost saving move.
Robert Bruininks says 40 executives at the U, including himself, will not get a raise in the 2010-2011 budget years.
Margaret Soltan, in her excellent blog University Diaries, has suggested that the salary freeze is damage control. If President Bruininks wants to demonstrate his concern about our financial situation, perhaps he should take a five percent pay cut?
