I suggest a freeze on hiring and a freeze on pay increases with a University-wide mandate that all tenure track faculty teach a minimum of two courses per quarter (many such faculty teach only 1 3-hour/wk course each term while making more than $100K).  UO will never be a research leader so any losses of research "superstars" is irrelevant.  They like to blame PERS, over which they have no control, but I have never seen actual PERS costs and their rate of increase compared to the rest of the budget and its rate of increase.  Inflation, according to the government, is at historic lows, much below the proposed tuition increase.  Time to put blackface Schill's feet to the fire to look after Oregon's children rather than greedy overpaid UO administrators and tenure-track faculty.
