Unions cry foul over hike in v-c's pay

Article Abstract:

Academic unions have accused university vice-chancellors of double standards after it emerged that in 2002-2003, the most recent year for which figures are available, vice-chancellors accepted average pay rises of 6%, far higher than those offered to their staff. The average wage of a vice-chancellor rose to UKPd135,000 in 2002-2003. Sally Hunt, general secretary of the Association of University Teachers, whose members are due to go on strike over this year's 3% pay offer, stated that the figures show why so many academics and other college staff are prepared to take industrial action over the issue of pay.
